Re: [Swprograms] Slightly OT: Re: Grace Digital wifi radio $159 at Best Buy (USA)

Excellent!  By the end of the month we should have people on this board with experience with the Sangean, Grace and ComOne wifi radios.  Comparing notes should prove very helpful to those who own one of these babies as well as to those contemplating such ownership.

Does anyone else here own a wifi radio?  Which one do you have? I have a Com One Phoenix.
