Default First $99 HD Radio announced

Despite Ibiquity choosing to name next generation terrestrial radio
after the ever so popular HDTV, it hasn't been widely accepted yet.
The initial cost of HD radio tuners has been a big reason and
Radiosophy is hoping to change that at NAB, by introducing the first
$99 HD Radio, which makes it half as much as the next cheapest model.
Like most radios today, it has a few more tricks: it's an alarm clock,
has an external antenna connection, as well as the latest must have
for any device with speakers, a line input for your MP3 player.
According to the release you have to act now to get the $99 price, as
those who wait until after July 30th will have to pay $119.99.

Questions - is it stereo or other multichannel?

Does it have an aux output for plug-in to a hi-fi system?

It's only $99 for a short while, then jumps back to $120. Just like
the Black Friday Accurian HD, this HD radio will not sell. This radio
is a $100 alarm clock that still requires external jacks for FM dipole
and AM loop antennas - consumers have not bought into the HD Radio
farce and will not bother to fool with clunky external antennas just
to pick up crappy terrestrial radio. LOL !!!
