[Electronics-Talk] New Radio for Dining RoomWithInternetConnectivity [Curious Myself]

[Andrews, David B (DEED)]

Actually, I was wrong with name, it is solutions radio, and url is 
http://www.solutionsradio.com

I am actually not sure if they sell to individuals, they are primarily aimed at selling to a group, who distributes the radio to its members to listen to something.  Some radio reading services are using them to plug holes their signals don't cover etc.

Isn't that one of those companies where you had to tell them what stations you wanted, and they would put them in?  To me, that's not an internet radio.  Only if you can search out stations you don't have to tell somebody to put in would I be interested.  Pam.

I'm going to see if the company still makes them, or still exists.
Smartphones and tablets and the such probably led to their demise.  Thanks for the info.
