It doesn't have DAB - there's no way in the UK I'd buy a radio costing
that much without support for digital radio. OK, I know you can stream
most of the stations, but it does chew up bandwidth on your connection.
Also, there was a Sony announced a couple of months back that looked
similar, but better designed. I wonder what happened to that?

My 2p on this product: I think this could be an inflection point, if
Roku are going downmarket with clock radios etc., surely there is an 
opening for Slim to move up the audiophile end of the market with a
uprated component in standard sized case with higher quality
components. Also, the audiophile seperates market isn't an area where
others are pushing their technology and one where there are higher
margins and where Far Eastern competition won't be so strong.

Mind you, I'm not in the consumer electronics business, so what do I
know :-)
