When we brought you news of the Revo Blik a couple of weeks ago we were fairly apathetic about its arrival. Yes, it had those now-expected Revo good looks and no doubt great functionality, but all in all it appeared to be a Pico, only larger, less portable and with an alarm clock.
And that is still the case with the Blik WiFi.
But wait, Revo brings us news today of a secret sibling in the Blik family, the RadioStation. This beauty combines a WiFi radio with a DAB radio and this seems to be a world first. Better still, it can receive DAB+ as well and just in case you had no DAB or WiFi reception, an FM radio to boot.
Blik RadioStation is the result of a long and fruitful collaboration between Revo technologies and Frontier Silicon, the industry leader in digital radio technology. At the heart of Blik RadioStation is Frontier Silicon’s new multi-standard Venice 6 module.
Steve Evans, VP of Sales and Marketing at Frontier Silicon said: “The combination of Wi-Fi radio, DAB, DAB+, FM and network music streaming capability will be a very powerful proposition for end users. Revo has done a fantastic job in designing and releasing this highly desirable radio so quickly. We expect BLIK RadioStation to have particular appeal to all countries that are rolling out DAB+ services in the near future.”
So, here at WifiRadioReview.com we have two conflicting feelings about the Blik range. The Blik WiFi is not setting our world alight, but the Blik RadioStation may well do.
Revo, please pack all of this functionality into a Pico as well?
