ooTunes is like orb, but runs on mac's and linux too. It's not free ($20) but can stream lots of radio stations (windows media, mp3 and aac). It can also transcode so will work over edge connections too.

(NOTE: I am the developer, and thus, highly biased

During work it randomly started playing my innapropriate music. I remeber this happened on my original iPhone too so I got to remember to close the actual page. It is a very good collection of music for streaming though, there was slot of enjoyable music. Is this the closest I'm going to get to streaming radio on the iPhone aside from orb or jailbreaking my iPhone? Thanks!
