Eric,

What sort of rumblings have you heard? I do remember my first one
flaking out on its FM tuner. It was still under warranty (almost a
month before expiring) and I sent it to Tivoli.

They sent a new radio. That was about three or four years ago. It's
been OK, so far.

I do remember the switches on the first generation radios were a bit
stiff.

Apparently they are using a different type of switch because this one
doesn't require so much wrist-twisting.
