Hi Clive
I agree with your comments. I think the buttons are quite close together, even
with tactile markings, and may cause a problem for those whose finger
sensitivity is not as it could be. You do get used to it though, but something
worth noting. I also agree with you about the aerial and the radio not having
a stand or stable bottom. For those who know it, the Pure Move radio is very
similar in size to the Evo12, it really does feel like a radio when you first
take it out of the box. The sound is really good, and there are multiple
voices to choose from. The one thing I really don't like about it though is
the alphanumeric system it uses. I thought I was playing with my little
grandson Ezra when inputting letters, A for Apple, B for Banana, C for Cat, D
for Dog, E for Egg, etc. Come on, that's just plain daft! When you enter the
letter S, it confusingly says See or Sea, which makes you wonder for a split
second if you entered a letter C. That definitely needs to be modified, and
sped up as well.
I have been figuring out how to play podcasts and Internet radio stations, and
have quite a few stored now. You can either search by entering letters and
digits to find what you want, or you can search by country, genre, etc. I had
great difficulty finding the space to separate words, but Steve solved that
one, you don't use 0 as you would on the VRS, you tap number 1, then arrow
right once.
So once you search for a podcast or station, you can add it to your Favourites
list by pressing the menu key, or stream it live. Let me tell you that there
are literally hundreds you can look for in comparison to OoTunes on the VRS.
I'll do my best to help with queries, I'm still learning and playing myself.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Subject: [access-uk] Evo E12 - a great product!
Hello everyone,
I took delivery yesterday of my Evo E12 and I am very pleased with it. I soon
had it connected to our wifi network, manually entering the password.
The FM radio reception is excellent and I now have it tuned to our local BBC
radio station. The sound is superb through its stereo speakers. I have
noticed it doesn't stand up very well on its bottom edge and has to be leant
against something to stop it falling over. This is necessary when using the FM
radio which needs the aerial extended.
One thing to note: The buttons are quite small and close together. The dots
help, especially the two dots on the 5 button, and it is easy to press the
wrong one until you are used to the layout.
Having come from the Victor Reader Stream which has internet radio playlists
and podcast feeds, how is this done on the Evo E12? Any help with this is most
appreciated.
Best wishes,
Clive Pallett
