 Internet Radio Oct 12, 2009
Item arrived very fast. Set up was a breeze. I run a secure wireless N network. I was up and running in minutes. Worked great. For its size sound quality is pretty good.
Satechi Internet Radio Sep 25, 2009
A great all purpose alarm radio that delivers WiFi Internet stations (Polka Music too) as well as every other need in a bedside clock radio, alarm, sleep timer, ear phone, etc. A great buy, I look forward to getting to bed at night just to operate the Satechi with its worldwide capabilities and thousands of stations. Its just plain fun!

 Interesting gadget but not for everyone Aug 23, 2009
I've had this radio for a little less than a month. The idea of combining Internet streaming with the concept of a table radio has potential, but this is still a work in progress. It's not clear who the intended audience is. The geeks who can deal with its quirks and technical challenges probably will use their PCs to listen to [...](which is where this radio gets its content). Aunt Minnie, who wants to turn on a radio and listen to her favorite station, will give up in despair the first day. Maybe people who have gotten through the transition to HDTV will be better equipped for this change.
Let's look at some highlights.
It only displays 24-hour time. I like this feature. Others might not.
When it first connects to the network, it shows the current time in Western Europe. There is nowhere to change the time zone. As far as I can tell, you're supposed to set the current time manually, and then it remembers the delta between that time and European time, and applies that delta every time it's connected. It doesn't show the date, even though there's room on the display for it. Seconds would be nice too.
As far as I can tell, there's no one-touch way to make the alarm stop after it comes on. You can set the snooze timer with one button, but then it comes on again. You have to go through multiple levels of menus to turn it off.
When wakeup time comes, you get a popup display asking if you want to turn the radio on. When I first set it up and was testing it, this seemed like the stupidest thing in the world. Later I discovered that this popup is displayed for a minute or so and then the radio comes on.
If you want to set, or unset, the alarm, you have to go through a sequence of menus. This isn't so bad. But if the alarm has been unset and then you want to set it again, you can't just click something to set it. You have to go through the whole process of setting it. It will remember the time so you don't have to enter that again. But when it gets to the station, it seems to present a random entry from a randomly sorted list of favorite stations. If you don't scroll to the one you want, you'll get something other than what you wanted.
It occasionally gets itself into state where it will not work correctly until you unplug it and plug it in again.
After losing power, it will not know what time it is until it connects to the internet.
I've never been able to get it to work with Windows Media file sharing. Also, I've been unable to figure out how to get the Search button to do anything.
The Users Manual is just barely useful. It appears that it was not written or proofread by native speakers of the English language.
In spite of all of the above, I am still enthusiastic about this device and hope the manufacturer will recognize the opportunity they have to exploit a whole new kind of market. They have the ability to push out new firmware updates, so the user interface can be improved. I would recommend that they set up a wiki to let users collaborate and build their own manual. I can see where it is time for a new model of providing support for consumer electronics.
I have contacted Satechi Customer Support numerous times with questions about the above items. My emails have always been answered by someone named Arthur, who seems to have infinite patience. This is encouraging.
Great product, Great service! Aug 14, 2009
Not only is the product exactly what is described, but Satechi Customer Service followed up to make sure everything was okay after I received. I breath of fresh air in this age of automation.

Excellent WiFi Internet Radio Aug 11, 2009
I am not tech-saavy but have wanted to try an internet radio for some time. After looking at all the options and reading the product reviews on Amazon, I decided to try the Satechi even though it's not as well known as other brands, mainly due to its low price and pretty good reviews. I've had it for two weeks and have been extremely pleased with it. Easy to set up (picked up my wifi right away, I entered the WEP security code and it was ready to use). I agree with C. Campbell that the booklet that came in the box wasn't very clear or useful, but the link to the German booklet in Nachearts' review worked fine - pp. 29-34 of the booklet are the English instructions. The sound quality is excellent on stations streaming at 96 or 128kbps. I think the rotary scrolling dial on the right side of the control panel is pretty clever, allowing you to scroll through the stations very rapidly when necessary.
Regarding customer service, I haven't had any problems but I've received two e-mails from Satechi asking if I was happy with the unit. I am! If C. Campbell or anyone else needs help, [...] Also, while I haven't used it that much, I don't think the remote control is as bad as some of the other reviews say.
Overall, I would say this is a great product and an excellent value.
