ya... converting 3hrs of internet radio isn't wht i'm looking for. it will saved me lots of time and effort to have W800i play realaudio on its own.

well, it's not possible, sorry, nothing I can do about that. If you want to listen to real audio on your phone, you willl have to convert it, that is the only way.
3 hours of audio will take about 15 mins MAXIMUM to convert using dbpoweramp. You can convert all tracks at once by selecting all tracks and right click then click convert.
The W800/K750 support AAC and MP3 only (and amr and max. 16KHz wav).
Very few hardware players support real audio (if any).

All (i think) series 60 phones can play real audio/video plus can stream too.
You only need to have real player installed which usually comes with the phone cd.
W8 isn't a smartphone....

Hardware devices don't generally support Real Audio. Smartphone os based phones of course can install Real Audio software players. It's still not out of the box support, and I don't know of any mp3 players that support it. (although there may be some). The K750 and W800 have hardware level support for AAC and MP3 playing (embedded chip) whereas smartphones use installable software for their ra players.
If someone buys a W800 expecting smartphone abilities then they are going to be disappointed - you can't blame a phone that isn't a smartphone for not having real audio support. Why should manufacturers develop hardware to play real audio when it is such a limited format? Anyone who chooses a proprietary audio format will run into these problems unless they choose a platform than can accomodate their needs.
