1. Why not! You don't have to buy, but they're a small company and I
    guess that they're not going to be able to produce empegs in
    batches of 1000s.

  2. Probably not any (or not much) cheaper than now, but it might have
    a bigger hard disc, the base model is better now than when I first
    looked at the web site (6 months ago?), and the top model is now 28Gb,
    in 6 months it might be 50Gb!!

  3. Pass, I'd like to know this too! What for example is a really
    simple solution that sounds ok (for up to say 150 quid)?
    Note: I've got a noisy, harshly sprung car so I'm not after
    hifi nirvana!

  4. The empeg generates too much electrical noise for AM to work in the
    same box (just like any sort of digital device), shame really 'cos
    in the UK Radio 5 is one of the few stations worth listening to.
