Hello, I confess ! I'm one of the bad guys. I just ordered a radio.
Do I feel bad ? Hell no ... can't wait the postman ringing ... So I think the question was: why not the boom ? I think thats easy ... - radio is 100bucks cheaper. - radio has a size which fits the small table at the bedside (boom just too big) - if a boom stood there I wouldn't have stereo either (just one ear pointing to the stereo boom is mono - isn't it ? ) - did I says it was on my bedside ? No - my better half demanded to have it on hers (she saw it at IFA earlier) ! So even less demand for stereo and SHE definitely doesn't care - and did I mention that its much more comfortable to move through the menus of a radio than a boom ? So why not a Controller then ? - Um - its more expensive than a radio (ok - just 10 bucks) - But does it have a speaker to fall into sleep while its playing ? Um - yes it has a speaker - but we REALLY don't wont to talk about it :) - Does it have favourites ? Sort of but not with extra buttons to switch fast between my favourite radio stations ? - Does it stand as good on the bedside as a radio ? No - if I don't take it, it falls over - and the most important point: did my better half ever use the Controller yet ? Nooooooooo ... don't know why ... she just makes fun of me when I sit here fiddling with this little thingy Guess I had no other chance than bying a radio ? Would I buy one more radio ? Maybe for the kitchen ? When dinner is cooking I really don't care for stereo too and why not take the cheaper price then ? -- bluegaspode 1x SB-Controller+Receiver, 1xSB-Boom.
