Alright then the amount of time the radio plays. That comment didn't
quite fit in with semiconductor chip sets.

So can you point me to a HD portable that runs off batteries? Far as I
can see there are none.

Your reading comprehension really bites, doesn't it? I have said multiple
times that there will be a minimum of two and as many as 4 low power
consumption HD chips shipping in Q1 of 2008; these will enable portables and
boom boxes of all sizes and we should see the first in Q2 or Q3 of 2008.

d'Eduardo -but- At What Price Range ?

We are talking an AM/FM Radio that happens to be "HD"
and the 'Average-Joe' Radio Listener is not going to pay
Big Bucks for what he considers an AM/FM Radio.

Here are three AM/FM Radios that I bought in the last year.

Sony ICFS10MK2 Pocket AM/FM Radio ~$11

Panasonic RF-2400 AM / FM Radio ~$17
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00007KDX6/

Sangean DT-200VX 'Pocket" Radio ~$65

ALL UNDER $100 and TWO UNDER $25

"HD" Radios Won't Sell -If- They Cost Too Much !
