Radio in your pocket with PocketDAB 1500
Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) technology has breathed new life into the old
radio but portable DAB radios have been less impressive. PURE Technology, the
company behind the market-leading Evoke series, has decided that portable DAB
radios can be lighter, perform better and look good at the same time. 
The
PocketDAB 1500 is skinnier than its
predecessor, the PocketDAB 2000, measuring 65 x 110 x 21mm and weighing a portable 123g. Along with the
DAB functionality, the 1500 adds FM with RDS, textSCAN, a new colour
scheme and a ChargePAK rechargeable battery pack which promises up to 24 hours
operation between charges.
It also boasts a decent set of earphones in the
bundled Sennheiser MX300s. It costs £89.99.
