Hello Bobby and all, In an interview on In Touch a good while ago, a spokesman for Pure reported that the sales of the Sonus 1XT were very disappointing, and it was likely that they would not continue the product indefinitely. It seems that not enough of us purchased them, so who is to blame there? Incidentally, I have purchased 3 over the years, one gone off to meet it's maker, one chattering away regularly, and one still waiting to speak.

However, anything that uses an Internet stream runs the risk of not being able to broadcast any rights restricted content.

Whatever I did, it always took me ten minutes to find the station I wanted. I don't listen to DaAb radio. I went off the whole idea.

I'm looking for something that can fit easily in a side pocket of my rucksack as I love to listen to the radio when i take my dog to the woods. -- I ain't dead yet!
