Also, the financial health of Best Buy is on very shaky grounds, and it could go under at any time, leaving owners of this new product in the lurch.  And Best Buy's store-brand Insignia products have not enjoyed a good reputation for quality.  A few years ago, they introduced a voice-command clock radio that was beset by all kinds of technical glitches.  It was quickly discontinued and wound up on Cowboom.com selling for only $8.  So let's see if Insignia's latest attempt at a blind -friendly radio is a real improvement.
