MusicPal

Review: Wireless digital internet radio from Freecom
Despite looking like it fell through a wormhole to the '80s, the MusicPal does all it claims to and is easier to use than any rival. It's just far too expensive.

This gadget is basically an alarm clock that uses a wireless (or wired) connection to play internet radio. It's suited to bedside cabinets and isn't meant to replace your PC or stereo - the 3W mono speaker puts paid to that, though there are stereo RCA and headphone outputs.

Rotate the right dial to highlight options and click to select them. Hop into settings, provide your wifi password, and that's it. There are plenty of stations to cater for every taste.

You can even stream your own MP3s and WAVs from your desktop with the help of Media Player 11. In fact, MusicPal's one problem is that it's about £35 dearer than it should be.
