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. 

Paul Benson.

  Hi Clive,

   

  There are probably equivalent apps running on Android phones, but never 
having used Android, I don't know how accessible they are.  However, anything 
that uses an Internet stream runs the risk of not being able to broadcast any 
rights restricted content.

  Seems then, that if you want anything with spoken menus, you'll have to port 
everything over and learn how to use apple products, or whislte dixie I could 
never get on with the controles on the Pure move, ehre, if you press down and a 
bit to the right you get one result, and if you press right and down abit you 
get another. 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.

   

  Best,

  Clive

    Yes, the lack of speech is a bit of a pain but it is not too hard to work 
things out. CJ.

Hi, Roberts do make a small and very portable DAB radio. I t is worth 
considering. Regards CJ. Bobby McNab wrote:  Hi, does anyone know if there is 
such a thing as a portable talking dab radio.I know there's a pure talking dab 
radio available, but it's not exactly portable.  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.
