Frontier Silicon has launched what’s claimed to be the world's first "four-in-one" module capable or receiving Internet radio, DAB, FM and music streamed from a pcC. The Venice 6 integrates a WiFi, DAB, and FM front-end together with an on-board WiFi antenna in a single module. It enables audio manufacturers to easily produce low-cost, feature-rich, radios for the global market, bringing thousands of Internet radio stations and music streaming to a new generation of affordable, easy-to-use home DAB/FM radios via household WiFi. Applications using the module will include portable and alarm clock radios as well as CD micro systems, boomboxes and HiFi tuners.
