Does anyone have an Email or Web address for Pure? I think Ian's comment about
writing to them is a good one and I intend to do so.

Here here, Adrian, and write and tell them how good it is too. For once a
commercial company has made a genuine response to a demand from a section of
the market and personally I think they should get all the encouragement we can
give them for having done so. After all, we're rightly quick enough to tell
them when they get it wrong.

I bought myself a sonus for christmas and am extremely inpressed so much so
I'll more than likely buy another for downstairs later in the year. I found it
online for £95 including delivery so you can get it for less than the £120RRP
which RNIB charge without having to register with tapesense. I got mine within
48 hours of ordering. I'd urge anyone considering getting a DAB radio to go
for the Sonus to proove to Pure that there is a demand and then they might
eventually be able to commercially justify extending the ivox technology in to
other models.

Hi Graham,
The latest news from Pure is disappointing. They have no plans to extend the
iVox speech into other of their products because, they say, it's performance in
terms of sales has been, in their terms disappointing. This is sad, not least
because the most recent addition to their catalogue is a personal DAB/FM
receiver with much the same functionality as The Bug kitchen model. So you can
rewind, pause and record DAB to an SD card. But it's display is extremely VI
unfriendly and it relies more heavily than other models on menus.
Having said this, in my experience across the board, once you've mastered the
principle of DAB sets, it's pretty easy to apply it.
Cheers now.
Ian

Hi
I have a talking pure radio. Very nice radio)
I now wish to purchase another but with the FM tuner built in. As far as I can
see pure do not make a talking one with this option.
Do any of you use a non talking FM one and is it fairly easy to use with no
sight.
Regards
Graham
