Really like the widget! The style is very nice; no more alien widgets 
I tried the same with the FM RDS notify widget, but this is much better.
Fm boost would be nice indeed for people that don't want to fiddle with system files, though i prefer the modified fmtxd version.
Is it possible to change the RDS text? would be a nice addition ^^

Managing could be done in the settings but selecting a preset must be quick and easy.
Maybe via an options menu accessible when in desktop editing mode (FM RDS Notify also does it that way for its options). There you can store 2 frequencies. In the widget simply add a circle next to the on/off button with number 1 or 2 inside. So you have four fields in the lower row:

Hello and welcome to Friendly FM
What is it?
Friendly FM is a widget that allows to switch the FM transmitter of the N900 on or off. It can also be used to quickly change the current frequency of the transmitter and to switch the Bluetooth radio. (Bluetooth is switched by clicking on the Bluetooth icon.)
How does it differ from other widgets with the same functionality?
Friendly FM uses the background graphics for the media player widget from the current theme for itself. Thus not locking like an 'alien' widget on the desktop but rather being friendly and looking like a native widget.
Friendly FM is no replacement for programs like FM Radio.
Huh? Show me a screenshot!
That's cool, where can I get it?
From extras-devel or Maemo package interface.
I don't like the icons. Can I change them?
Friendly FM loads its icons from
Transmitter and bluetooth icon were taken from Faenza icon theme.Code:/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps (ffm_inc.png ffm_dec.png) /usr/share/icons/hicolor/40x40/apps (ffm_on.png ffm_off.png) /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps (ffm_bt_on.png ffm_bt.png ffm_tm_on.png ffm_tm.png)
What about support for FM Boost?
I am not using FM Boost myself but instead use a patched version of fmtxd which can be found here. This patched version allows a wider range of frequencies and automatically boosts the power to 120.
I will anyway see if I can integrate FM Boost into FFM.
You suck!
Yeah, I know.

Basically, the button will show either Pre. 1 or Pre. 2 and the station below it. If the current station is different than the current preset then pressing the button will activate the preset. If the current station is the same as the current preset, then pressing the button will switch to the alternative preset and you would have to press it again to activate that preset as it is now different than the current station.
To save a station as a preset you would switch to the desired preset, manually change to desired station, then simply hold down the preset button until the station is set.
I'm just wondering if this is possible to do. Then again, the talent here has surprised me before.

Ahh shizz... I guess I DON'T know how to use the pic uploader. If it's too unclear, let me know how to upload the whole file so I can show the pic properly.

Looking at your and Guitaroachs suggestion it seems that 2 presets are enough for most people? Can we agree on this?
Then I would take Guitaroachs idea and will see what I can come up with. But please be patient, my time is rare.

For bluetooth we already have bluezwitch...
I like the design of the mediaplayer, keep up the good work!
Great Widget.
