I thought radios that were not digital would be obsolete by 2015.  If so,
£75 is a lot of cash for soemthing only useful for five years.

Hi David

Yes I saw this, and was disappointed that DAB isn't a runner.  Perhaps a bit
late in the day for a talking radio we've been accessing without speech now
for years, but a useful product for some.  But don't Cobolt do something
similar, or is this the same?


Kind Regards,
