Olympus VJ-10 brings FM Radio into attention

Olympus VJ-10 brings FM Radio into attention

FM Radio isn’t exactly hi-tech stuff but Olympus seems to forget that with VJ-10, a pretty ordinary Radio with arguably futuristic design but a whooping 37 GB internal storage capacity.

Looks interesting, right?

VJ-10 is not really futuristic in design, it's more like silver plastic

Why do you need 37 GB storage on a poor radio? For 2500 hours of recordings in WMA format at 32 to 128 kbps. With the miniUSB port you can upload MP3 files and WMA files, or you can use VJ-10 as an external drive. Information is displayed on a 3.9″ screen. The number of preset stations is 20 but of course you can choose your own.

Why I wouldn’t buy one? Because it’s cheaper and even more flexible to use a TV tuner with integrated FM on your PC.
