Hi Experts,

Does anyone know where there is a good discussion
of Internet radios?

I bought an Aluratek and found the most disturbing
factor was the few
control buttons that were available. I had been
using it for a few hours
and reached a point where I could not figure how
to increase the volume
of a particular station.

I am looking for something more intuitive and with
more controls - buttons,
knobs, or whatever.

Comments appreciated.

You might want to check out the various reviews at this cnet link.
http://www.cnet.com/topic-reviews/internet-radio/wi-fi.html

For the price of some of these items it seem to be better to just get a
small netbook and run some decent internet radio software on it.

Thaaaaank you GlowingBoy :-)

That bunch of radios on CNet seem to be wi-fi,
which I don't want. I value
what's left in my skull.

I found some non-wi-fi there too but they don't do
much for me. I guess I'll
have to return the Aluratek and wait.

Thanks again :-)
