Stuff Magazine takes a look at the Bush TR2015WIFI Wi-Fi Internet radio for an impressively affordable £120 -- and it likes what it sees.
"DAB's starting to look ever so creaky," the article notes. "It's not fair really. Tethered to traditional radio signals, it can't possibly pick up thousands of stations from Tokyo to LA or Mumbai. Yes, we've seen the future already this year with several Internet radio sets vying for our attention, and now this bargain Bush has set a new low, price-wise."
Despite the affordable price, the Bush solution accesses 2,500 Internet stations, and can stream music from a PC. The only real limitation? Just 10 presets -- which, given those 2,500 stations, could be a little frustrating.
No U.S. availability yet -- in the meantime, we'll just have to make do with the $299 Acoustic Energy radio, or the way-too-cool $399 Roku Wi-Fi-delity...

It recognises my Eircom network.
But when I enter my WEP password which has has 26 alphanumeric symbols, as supplied by Eircom, the internet provider I am given the message MAX LENGTH REACHED and no further connection is made.
Is there any help available for someone living in Dublin ?
Or is this radio unsuitable
Any help appreciated
Yours Michael Heffernan
