Rejoice, news nerds! NPR arrives on the iPhone

The app allows you to listen to live streams from hundreds of NPR news stations, as well as reading and listening to archived stories. All told, you're getting over 1,000 stations, news programs and live streams on your iPhone for free.To keep all this content organized, you can add stories to your queue and listen to them in order.

For shows that aren't live at the moment, you'll still be able to listen to the most recent episode on demand.
