iPod Gets First DAB Radio Portable

iPod users will soon be able to listen to DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) radio with the unveiling of an innovative egg-shaped add-on.

Digital radio specialists Roberts Radio and Frontier Silicon have teamed up to create what they claim is the first DAB/FM plug-in for iPods. It’s also possibly the smallest DAB radio on the market. Egg_radio The small, egg-shaped device measures 52.4 x 32.0 x 8.1mm and is based on Frontier Silicon’s Kino 2 DAB IC. It can also be used to browse and control music stored on the iPod.

iPod owners – and there are millions of them in the UK - have often complained that they cannot receive radio broadcasts. Now, both companies are hoping the floodgates will open when the £50 DAB egg launches this October, in time for the all-important Christmas rush.

“The iPod lets listeners take their music collection with them wherever they go,” said Leslie Burrage, CEO of Roberts Radio. “With this accessory they can now choose to listen to live DAB or FM broadcasts anywhere they take their iPod – a must have for the Christmas present list!”

Anthony Sethill, CEO, Frontier Silicon added: “Our world-class engineering team has designed a technology first – the smallest and lowest-power DAB radio available. It’s an exciting initiative that will bring a new generation of listeners to DAB radio and greatly increase the penetration of DAB across Europe.”
