Another feature I liked was being able to set up podcasts. Found a couple interesting ones. Had to set them up using the Grace reciva website. Took a few trys to figure out the set up procedure. from Amazon.com Caveat: I purchased a GDI-IR1000, essentially a GDI-IR2000 without a remote control (and a GDI-IR3000 after) primarily to listen to a handful of Sirius talk channels without turning on a stereo system. DirecTV provides all the XM music channels, and I have a minimum of use for the 15,000 internet stations the Grace radio successfully receives. from Amazon.com This needs a lot of refinement. I know, this is not advertised as a clock radio, because if it was I would give it one star. The big dissapointment for me is that it does not do something that typically table radios offer: if there is an alarm clock function you would expect it to be easy to operate in the dark; with the alarm and snooze function buried in the digital menu, you have to not only use two hands you have to look at it and scroll. Then there is the glaring light...the light that you cannot turn off (as far as I can tell) if the radio is turned off. from Amazon.com I was very disappointed with this device, would not connect to the Internet (on my network, or even another separate network I tried for troubleshooting), and Grace support is really just terrible. Right out of the box I was able to connect to my router, but no matter what I tried the radio would not connect to the Internet/reciva servers. from Amazon.com The Grace WIFI Radio is a great buy. I love using Pandora with it . from Amazon.com S. A. The Grace radios are really sweet. Not only can they receive over 13,000 stations from across the world, but Grace supports Pandora, Aupeo and even Sirius (you have to pay for Sirius, but all others are free). from Amazon.com This product is amazing - really advanced product that has the appearance of magic (in the Arthur C Clark sense). Connected easily (after power cycling the router) and viola - internet radio. Pandora setup via www.reciva.com and viola all my Pandora I had stations - media player connected (not so viola - on XP, make sure you go to your firewall in control panel and reset it to the default settings, follow the Grace instructions for network file sharing, share your folder in your shared directory that has your music) and then all my mp3s! No more connecting my laptop to the internet, then to my wireless speakers, no more plugging in my ipod etc. from Amazon.com I had a little trouble getting this radio to connect to the router, but fixed it and set the router to accept connections to the MAC address as a limited security measure. The sound in not Carnegie Hall quality, but I didn't expect that. I would like to see a hybrid between Grace and Bose. Now, that would be a terrific sounding radio!!! from Amazon.com I tried and returned 2 radios. Both had same problem, a distracting static sound from the speaker. I also found this problem reported in Grace forums from others, so I feel they are aware of this. Too bad, other than that it seemed to be a good product. from Amazon.com This review is for the Grace GDI-IR1000 or GDI-IR2000 internet radio. This product is an updated version of the ITC-IR1000. from Amazon.com
