Vita r2i £270-£300 depending on colour. Got one last week - love it. I looked at the Zeppelin and it sounds great but it's a bit too 'look at me'.

Revo.
Not all Roberts dab radios will work with the current generation iPod/ iPhones.

Why do you want a Radio? I use Tune In radio through the WiFi on an iTouch and my Blackberry, played through a Klipsch iGroove (better sound than the ubiquitous Bose). The Roberts DAB stays silent on the windowsill...

I guess he just wants a radio...

£250 WTF I know folk want a neat solution but you could get a good separates system with say sh speakers for that!

djaustin, thanks for the TuneIn radio tip, just downloaded and it seems to work very well. I will take a look at the igroove too.

So maybe it is just a dock that I need.

Thank's everyone.

Cos it won't work just as well, it will sound better.

May sound slightly better but a lot of people don't really want hi-fi seperates and speakers, they want something that has a minimum amount of wires and is easy to move from room to room.

Have a look at my original post in which I make exactly this point.
