"iBiquity Forced to Build Own Portable Player"

"Companies like iBiquity that work with OEMs (original equipment
manufacturers), who product PC and consumer electronics gear nearly
never get into the business of making their own branded devices
because this kills the motivation for the firms they sell technology
and reference design hardware to. The only reason a company gets into
the business of making its own branded stuff is that they can't find a
partner."

"First Glance at Insignia’s HD Radio Portable"

"But at first glance and without testing this product, the Insignia
portable has little to offer other than the simple fact that it can
pick up an HD radio signal. First of all, it excludes HD AM radio
stations... And lastly, the Insignia HD Radio Portable Player does not
have the iTunes tagging option... So, I have to buy a USB charger to
recharge the batteries of this radio? Not included on the price? No HD-
AM? No AM? No tagging? No RDS? How much time to recharge? How much
time working with normal alkaline batteries? No MP3 player included?"
