Who Would Have Thought?

Amazon is selling it for $179.00; what's that, the cost of 10 CDs or so? Perhaps we can order the Michael Fremer model with the record player, that's more my speed.

Hope they bring along a keg and bikini girls, too!

thoose raidios / chargers are nice for around the house kinda stuff but they really suck on a jobsite,its very dangerous to have music playin on a construction site.

We always had a radio on when I was working construction. If you can charge your portable tools at the same time, all the better! Besides it's a good toy that the accountant won't question when he's doing your taxes, because it has the right name on the box.

Maybe they're not right for everyone. I guess you have to know your limitations. I wouldn't even consider a job where all I got to listen to was my co-workers screaming from the nails they're shooting into their hands and feet, not to mention the occasional one to the head.

I'm waiting for Krell to make a universal charger with an integrated amp and SACD player. Now there's a reason to go to work.

There was a time in my life when I would regularly visit construction sites and all I remember were extremely beat upon portable radios/boom boxes. I'm talking about things that look like they were dragged to the worksite behind the pickup and then used as a hammer. The Bosch looks like it will still look pretty good even after a couple of seasons of hard use. The only thing it's missing is a CD changer.
