Tivoli NetWorks Radio Going Into Production
3:30AM Mark Wilson | Tivoli’s awaited NetWorks Radio is finally going into production this week and it’s looking quite different from what we saw previously. The US$600 unit features a Global Portal accessible via the system’s Ethernet and Wi-Fi, allowing you to listen to music from all over the world. In addition, the unit can interface with PCs (for DRM-free WMAs, MP3s and Real Audio) and features USB for reading music off of various mass storage devices. The inclusion of a stereo speaker or CD drive will cost extra—which is a Tivoli standard. And while we’re sure it sounds great, US$600 is still a lot to pay for an internet radio…even if it comes in various “furniture grade” styles of wood casing. More »

Tivoli Model One (Thankfully) Limited Edition
1:30AM Seamus Byrne | Tivoli is offering a limited edition version of their Model One from Scandanavian glass artist Per B. Sundber. Surrounded in hand-crafted crystal, only 30 models will be sold at $4,200 a pop (about $4,100 of that is for the decoration). Oh, and we don’t expect you to buy it. We’re simply offering further evidence as to why people generally stick fruit, flowers and candles in their crystal. [tivoli via technabob] More »
