    Don't know if this has been posted before,

    This is quite amazing - £34.99 plus postage! However, I have never heard of Crown and I can't find any online reviews - so is it any good??

    Seems to be £39.94 now (plus £4.99 delivery)

    Dunno either if this has been said but ARGOS have some DAB boom box style CD/DAB/analogueFM/MW/Cassette made by Alba for 49.99

    enter "Alba" in the search box on the Argos site or "DAB" I suppose would work too.

    Hi All

    Is anybody aware of DAB suitable for a kitchen i.e. portable, that also has aux / phono input so that it is possible to connect an ipod to it via the aux output from the ipod dock ?
    I have had a look a quite a few websites / shops but haven't found anything suitable yet.
    Or if anybody has any ideas for a DAB / ipod combination suitable for a kitchen that would be much appreciated.

    Regards

    Interesting little gizmo! Can you let us have the website where you found it - or its retail outlet? Thanks.

    Thanks. If you click on the info button, it's listed at £52.88, so it seems to be a reasonable bargain!
