ASUS Internet Radio Review - CNET
CNET have published a review of the Asus Air - tabletop internet radio. 'The Asus Air is available in black or brown ("wood") finishes. Unlike most glossy black products, our review sample was surprisingly resistant to fingerprint smudges. The left half of the front panel is dominated by a black speaker grille, which houses the single speaker. The right half features a brass-colored metal faceplate, which gives it a refined look that we found attractive. Toward the top is an LCD screen, and below are five buttons for setting presets, followed by a directional pad and the volume knob. While the Air looks pretty attractive from afar, much of the charm evaporates once you lay your hands on it. The knobs and buttons look like they match the metal faceplate, but they're actually made of a thin plastic that feels low-rent.'
