Use your radio as an alarm clock!
We've seen several Wi-Fi internet radios for under a ton and most of 'em have one thing in common: they're garbage. Not so the brilliant Revo Blik. This quality Wi-Fi radio is built to last, and in terms of audio performance and features it outstrips pricier rivals by a country mile. It even doubles up as an alarm clock.
Thousands of global stations to choose from!
Capable of accessing thousands of internet radio stations via your existing Wi-Fi network, the stylish Blik automatically uploads the latest station listings (8000 and counting) every time you switch it on. You can then search for your favorites by country or genre. We've listened to bhangra from Bahawalpur, baseball from Boston, chat shows from Chattanooga and listen-again broadcasts from the BBC - and those are just the infantile alliterative examples. The world really is your lobster.
Comes in black or white!
As well as internet radio the user-friendly Blik receives regular FM, although why you'd want your eardrums assaulted by Ryan Seacrest et al when you can listen to some hysterical guy jabbering on about the traffic in Rio is beyond us.
If you do tire of listening to all the lovely radio stations at your disposal, the Blik will also stream music from your computer. You can even plug in your iPod. Throw in a large LCD screen, station presets, various snooze functions and a slick remote control and you're looking at a radio that's liable to render you housebound - but in a good way.
Easy to use remote control
Of course all of the above would be useless if the Blik didn't cut the mustard in the sound department. Thankfully this award-winning gizmo emits crisp audio dynamite that will have rival machines scurrying for cover in shame. Guaranteed to re-ignite your love for radio the second you switch it on, the Revo Blik is one of the most entertaining sub £100 audio gizmos we've ever seen. So listen up and get ordering. Because you'll never be bored with the Blik.
L-R: Remote, changeable plug faces and AC mains adapter, 3.5mm jack (MP3 lead)

"..this is probably the coolest radio I’ve seen, not for the asthetics but the range of sources it can receive its music from. If you listen to the radio a lot but are a bit bored of current selections the Blik Wi-Fi radio is a great solution." www.coolest-reviews.com |
"DAB radio's on its last legs - and here's the reason why! The Revo Blik is a tidy little ingot of a sound system that can pick up your wirless internet connection at home and instantly connect you to over 8,000 radio stations from around the world." Nuts |

 | Digital WiFi Detector Why bother booting up your laptop to find Wi-Fi hotspots when you can seek them out with this nifty handheld gizmo? Simply hit the scan button in a highly Jack Bauer fashion and the detector will sniff out a signal and display specific info, including signal strength, network ID, encryption status and channel.
