Grace Debuts New Wi-Fi Radio

Final Thought:
I still haven't pulled the trigger on an Internet radio, but my guess is that soon they will reach a user friendliness and a closness to the experience of analog radios, with more listening options of course, that will make them eventually compelling.
Jeff: Don't you think a decent Android phone, with radio and streaming apps, teamed up with a nice radio with line-in, eliminates the need for a stand alone wi-fi radio?

I don't have a smart phone, but you make a good point, Dave.

Also an iPod touch with a bluetooth speaker would work and then you would have no need for a data plan, I think internet radio is now ready for prime time and offers thousands of options. I have been using these desktop units for 5 years now and I love it, I will fall asleep tonight to a London talk radio station and wake up to WABC.

Let's not forget the Samsung Galaxy Player. It's basically the Android equivalent of the iPod Touch...
