The Squeezebox Radio Accessory Pack, which includes the battery and a mini-remote control, will be available in the latter half of January 2010. It will be available for purchase from the US logitech.com web site. We're working to ensure it is available simultaneously worldwide through logitech.com.
It may be available through other retailers such as Amazon, but I am not sure. The price will be $49.99 USD. Some of you may see a battery as optional. I used to think that too, but in daily use at my house, a battery is mandatory. The battery transforms a Squeezebox Radio into a take-anywhere, indoor or outdoor source of all your music or internet radio. As a member of the Squeezebox team, I have lots of Squeezeboxes at home. But the battery-powered Radio is first choice for my family most of the time. Although the package lists the battery play time as 6 hours, in regular use I've seen it last between 7-10 hours. Thank you for your patience in waiting for the battery. It's taken longer than expected, but I think it will be worth the wait.
