Hello,
I too am interested in finding out about various internet radios. I
have a Sanyo R227 which is a great radio, but is not at all blind
friendly and can't be operated other than the eight presets by a
blind person. Where could I find some info on the logitech radio
that was mentioned? Or does anybody have any other ideas on one that
can be operated by a blind person? This Sanyo is a great radio but
I'm limited to just the eight presets, but don't have access to the
hundreds of other stations out there.
I'd be very interested to see what any of you guys have come
across that might be more blind friendly.. Thanks.
Bud

Hi there!
I'm about to take a look at some of the Pure radios to see how I go
with them on the net but one I can recommend in the meantime is one
of the Squeezebox units from Logitech, I've had one here for over 12
months now and I wouldn't be without it.
Initially it needs some setup fusing sighted assistance, this setup
tells the Squeezebox about your network, whether you're Squeezebox
is hard wired or not etc, whether you have a wireless network and so on.
Once the initial setup is completed then you can "play!" to your
hearts content.
You can control the radio in various ways, from the radio itself to
using a web interface on a computer through a Squeezebox account -
similar to what Pure radios do it seems with "The Pure Lounge" - to
controlling the radio from a smart phone.
I've done a podcast on my Squeezebox Boom radio/player if this would
be any help to you, I can send it to you.
Cheers!
