I was really looking for something more of a stand-alone desktop box.
The 'radio' was really more for absolute-minimum-entertainment-backup (and the large clock face, hopefully).
As it stands, today I brought in a thumb drive that I loaded up with some podcasts that's playing through WMP so I'm OK.
I guess I was sort of hoping this 'disaster' would require me to seriously consider getting a large new Nano for 'daily' use and using my present 2G Nano as, basically, a mobile podcast container.
And having a docking station built into a clock/radio would be required... wouldn't it:heybaby:
But, since the thing would be sitting here in an open office and I'd only be playing podcasts and music through $24 London Drug headphones, I don't need extraordinary quality or cost.
