No wonder you get serious life out of that. That is a lot of power with
decent constant draw current.
At least its not lead-acid like the battery pack on my first Sony CD
player. It was portable, but man was it heavy.

The battery is about 1.5 x 2 x 3 inches, going from memory. It's
charging now so I don't want to take it out to measure. As far as the

than the Boom even with battery and is much easier to carry compared to
the Boom.

Wow that is fantastic that the battery lasts that long.
What size is the battery??
Does it add a lot of weight to the radio?
Thanks for your impressions

I'm one of the lucky few non-employee beta testers to have received a
coveted Squeezebox Radio with a battery. I've been testing it out on
battery all day and have been quite impressed.
I started charging it last night around 5:30 PM, and when I checked it
around 10 it was fully charged. (Since I

If it was actually discontinued, would Caleb be working nights and

If you can accept that one of those "sound bars" delivers proper 5.1,

They started a bit that way because the battery is sold separately.
What would be the problem if such companion speaker would exist?
I think of putting the radio at my desktop for basic ste
