All views expressed on this site are my own. They do not necessarily reflect those of the Parish of Bursledon, the Diocese of Winchester or the Church of England. As such, I do not expect them all to be popular but you, the reader, can certainly expect them to be honest.

I was making my way to St Luke's today, using Nottingham's [pretty good] bus service. On the way, I was listening to Five Live on the AM/FM radio I was bought as a Secret Santa present one year at Pinnacle.net. To be slightly more accurate, I was trying to listen to Five Live, the reception was proving to be a real problem, and it made me think that it would be really handy to have a small (this radio is about 2"x1" and as thick as a AAA battery) DAB digital radio. Then I thought about the full list of specifications that would truly make me a happy bunny:

  • Tiny form factor (although perhaps not so small as my current one)
  • DAB Digital Radio
  • OGG/MP3 playback with decent capacity
  • Accessible as USB mass storage (so it'll work v. easily with Linux)
Anyone know of such a beast? If so, let me know...
