USB Aroma Oil Burner and Radio

Christina Crouch, Jan 31st 2008 Discuss [0]

I don’t like oil burners, I had a horrific experience with one where I set my desk on fire. I have a glass desk and when you have an oil fire on a glass desk, throwing water on it only spreads the fire around. I will never buy another one, not even the USB Aroma Oil Burner and Radio.

iMep3 is everything all wrapped up into one

Christina Crouch, Jan 24th 2008 Discuss [0]

I picture the makers of the iMep3 singing some warped version of the hokey pokey where you put the TV in and don’t leave the DVD player out, consolidation is what it’s all about. Maybe I have too much time on my hands. In any case the iMep3 is your basic all in one. Read The Full Story

MP Sound 41 lets you TiVo your radio

Christina Crouch, Jan 21st 2008 Discuss [1]

It’s been a long time, I’m almost positive, since anyone has said “I missed my program” and they were talking about the radio.

Iona Cube WiFi radio with simple presets

Chris Davies, Jan 4th 2008 Discuss [0]

There's certainly such a thing as too much choice, and internet radio stations are just one such example - worst thing is, if you neglect to set your new-found favourite as a preset, it'll take ages to find it again.
