It’s now time for Eton’s DAB radio to get the Porsche Design treatment.
Eton have launched the Porsche Design P’9123 stereo with the claim that it takes sound and design “to the limits“.
Apparently capturing the “essence of Porsche design”, the P’9123 has been made with a “double wall construction with a geometric acrylic casing fused to the metal housing, rubberised paint on the grill and a ventilation system for cool air circulation.”
Hmmmmmmmm………..
Sound comes out via three 1.5-inch full-range drivers and 3-inch active subwoofer.
Also on-board is DAB/AM/FM radio and short wave frequencies, an OLED alphanumeric display, an alarm clock radio, iPod/iPhone dock and metallic remote control complete with torch (I’m guessing for bedtime listening and finding where the other half of that broken biscuit went).
Measuring 130 x 141 x 229mm and weighing in at 2.8 kilograms, the P’9123 will go on sale in August for £480.
I need to hear it before I can say whether it sounds as impressive as it looks but so far so good :0)

talking about is of little use. It will take more then 2 minutes to load a real world webpage (like ). Will you wait 2 minutes for the page to be loaded?? I won’ t. Music and Video are very common on all the phones now. Nokia, Samsung, Sony have several phones with music and video support. For text I would prefer QWERTY keypad (like in blackberry or Nokia phones) rather then touch screen. I don’ t want to hold phone in one hand and use other hand for typing. It is like those early 19th century phones which…
Hi there :0)
I see your points and agree to some degree.
I think there are a lot of people that will go down the iPhone 3G route just as I am being tempted.
There is more support for iProducts than any other mp3/PVP and throw in the wi-fi and a telephone and the possibilty for other cool things now that the SDK is out and about and I think you’ve got quite a groovy thing.
Granted, for hardcore phone users, people that want a decent camera/vid phone, etc it still falls to the wayside when compared with the N95/96 and the SE Cybershot range.
If/when I get one it will be my FIRST Apple product as I’ve generally seen Apple as a fashion brand to be honest.
I currently use a Nokia E71 (thanks WOM World) and see how a QWERTY is handy but then this is my first QWERTY phone so I think I can adapt.
Thanks again for dropping by.
