Linux radio keeps it simple
Pure has announced an Internet radio that runs embedded Linux and provides FM and DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) playback. The Evoke Flow radio offers WiFi connectivity and media streaming from a connected PC, and is paired with a Internet search portal called the Pure Lounge.
According to Pure, which bills itself as "the UK's leading radio manufacturer," the Evoke Flow's design is based on its earlier Evoke-1S DAB radio, currently available for about $180, but with fewer buttons. The DAB format is said to be the leading digital audio broadcast format in the UK, and is now spreading throughout Europe.
Users interact with the simple, retro-styled radio via an OLED display with four buttons underneath, as well as two dials for volume and station selection. A search engine helps locate stations and podcasts, providing search by any combination of station name, genre, location, language, and audio quality. Listeners can also set up favorites lists and schedules, and with supporting radio broadcasts, can "listen again" to programs that were missed, says Pure.
