Nice catch! I'm looking forward to the answer too.:)

A return to the FM TX of N900 days would be nice, but I'm not counting on it. Today bluetooth is more ubiquitous than it was 7 years ago so I suspect there isn't the same drive to implement it.

I'd be happy with RX though! Use it plenty on my non-smartphone.

LG even sports DAB+ / FM RX ....

Interesting! When such a chip shows up in one place, it usually pops up in others too over time.

DAB+ is however only present in a minor part of Sweden (afaik only the Stockholm area) and I think that'll go away over the next couple of years so not the top feature for me.

Next to add to the feature list: DRM (the radio standard, not digital restrictions management) ;)

Just to be clear, does this mean there is only a receiver, and not TX?
