Hello list,

Forgive me if I've missed the boat on this one because it's been in the
news and it's probably already been discussed on here, but...

For the first time in several days I tried to get BBC R4 Extra on my
Plextalk Pocket only to get a recorded message about the Windows Media
stream being switched off.

Has anybody else have a solution for the Plextalk?

I find on Google pages suggesting the Plextalk cannot support AAC
streams and the BBC web site says the shoutcast streams will only be
available for about another year.

Will a firmware upgrade to the Plextalk Pocket fix this or am I up that
famous creek without a paddle?

Mike
