OK, I'm a little nieve when it comes to this stuff, but what is an HD radio,
and how does it differ, other than sound, to an FM radio?

also, why does it need to be accessible.  I've never had a radio that spoke
or that thing, and never knew you needed something like that for such a
simple thing as a radio.

I'm sure I have a lot to learn though, so please explain?

and its long-term viability is questionable.  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.
