This is hands down the best wifi radio out there. It picks up wifi signals with no sweat and uses the Receiva platform which has tons of stations. 99 presets just isn't enough.
Any Wireless B or G router should work. These are pretty cheap and you should be able to find them at any electronics store like Radio Shack. I usually recommend old reliable Linksys WRT54G router
You can use any self powered computer speakers, just plug them into the audio line output jack on the back. I have mine plugged into my home stereo equipment for bigger sound. It works great as a componant piece.
Thanks for the clear view of how to set this up. I purchased it just yesterday for a Jan 6, 2010 delivery at $140. Can't wait to receive it. Thanks again!
Can you listen to podcasts with this?

Thanks for the demo! I'm requesting one of these for my birthday, and it's encouraging to see how easy they are to set up.

I just bought yesterday at AES in Milwaukee. Very cool toy. I like to stream my desktop MP3s into the radio as well.

One more question......What type of external speakers can be used to supplement the tiny main one?

How cool is that? I'm calling C Crane next week and ordering one of these!
Looks like it will work just fine with my WPA Wi-Fi setup at home.
