Hi all,
I stumbled upon this device whilst viewing audio products from a local computer reseller. The company is AusPC Market web address is AusPC Market, the product link on AusPC Market is Link
This device aparently is a pure usb radio ie you dont need a line in cable to use it unlike the D-link usb radio. It might be of some interest to others and thought I would share with everyone. Oh by the way this bad boy retails for AU $67.10. This is the link to the manufacturers website Aver Media

Wow - too many misspelled words on AverMedia website. They don't say whether it's FM stereo - requirement is for just one speaker. "Antena input via earphone " - what does that mean? A good antenna connection is critical for a car PC FM radio. Sorry but I'll stick with my D-Link.

I just got an AverRadio the other day. It works, but not very well. The reception is not the best. I can listen to fairly clear broadcasts in mono, but when I switch to stereo it really distorts. Another problem being that the sound will only come out of the front speakers (the volume on the backs being very low), eventhough I have my Audigy 2 set up to play sound out of all 4 speakers. Although I believe this to be an issue with my Audigy sound card more than the radio....
