Noxon iRadio Cube: Internet Radio without a PC.

On November 3rd, TerraTec announced their launch of the Noxon iRadio Cube. It promises to bring you internet radio without being tied to your PC.

The Cube connects to the internet via LAN or WLAN, preferably on a flat rate broadband connection.

It promises direct access to more than 11,000 popular radio and web stations from around the world and thousands of podcasts in a pre-sorted directory.

The Cube gives the user access to the famous Napster P2P network with over six million music tracks. For one month, you will receive a free trial of Napster's flat-rate service (no more pay-per-track).

It has an integrated FM tuner that you can listen to without being connected to the internet and it boasts to be as easy to be as easy to operate as a conventional radio.

I'm unsure exactly how at this time, but you can also gain access to all of your archived music on your PC's hard drive through this boxy device.

Other features include a clock, sleep timer, alarm clock and 3 'favourite' buttons to store your preferred stations. Now, is it me, or is that a little poor? On my mobile I can store 12.

In a so called stylish, faux piano lacquer finish, the Noxon iRadio Cube will set you back £169. Now to me it looks a little bland and hardly enticing for that amount of money. It's not something I would spend £169 on. Let's face it, it's easy enough to play music from your PC or laptop nowadays and wireless speakers allow music to be listened to anywhere in your house.

Gaj-It hopes to bring you a full review of the Noxon iRadio Cube in the near future where we can put this rather basic looking device to the test. So keep an eye out and let us know what you think!
