Thats a shame. Never really marketed either.

It was never on sale here, and without the BBC stations on the Irish EPG, it was never going to be a runner.

It's still listed on a handful of websites. I'm sure there will be a few on ebay as well.

overrated and overpriced product anyway

An FM broadast band micro transmitter with an RF back channel (433 MHz say) for remore control/channel change and RDS/Radiotext for station identification would have been far better
