Recommend a good pocket radio

Captain Ahab · 2009-04-04 08:19:00

Was looking to get a cheap, light pocket radio for listening to on the way to work (would only use the left headphone so no safety issues re not hearing traffic). Anyone use one they would recommend?

Have tried a few but now use a nokia phone with FM receiver which allows me to change channel and answer calls by pressing answer button on handsfree.

Thanks, was thinking more of a small radio with a good battery life (don't have radio on my phone).

If MP3 is a requirement, I got a good FM/MP3 player on ebay recently, does a good job and was around 25euro all-in.

this is the player in question, might last 10 days between charges if just using the radio
