------------------------------------------------
A winner in the personal electronics category, the Eton E1 XM is the first
product to combine four radio technologies -- AM/FM/Shortwave/XM Satellite
radio -- resulting in the finest full-sized, all-in-one portable world radio
ever. Equipped with Dual Conversion Superheterodyne Circuitry and capable of
receiving Continuous Shortwave including Selectable Single Sideband, its
performance and sensitivity are peerless. The 5.7 inch backlit dot-matrix
display, 1700 station presets, and five tuning methods make the E1 XM's
extraordinary capabilities accessible to serious enthusiasts and casual
listeners alike.

Does this unit not bear a more than passing resemblance to the
prototype of the Grundig Satellit 900?

No price information I can find yet....


They (and you know how "they" are) say,
"Price: To be announced at CES 2004".
