4 of 5 Great for overseas broadcasts. Thursday, January 29, 2009 J L from St Petersburg, Florida
Easy setup and very good sound for a table top radio (it will also play through your home stereo). My only gripe is it only has 5 presets, a few more would be nice. But for the price, you cant go wrong.I was so happy with this radio, a bought a second one for my Norwegian mother. Now she can listen to all the broadcasts from the 'old country' whenever she likes.

5 of 5 Great Product Great Fun! Sunday, January 18, 2009 Stan from Darien, Illinois
Had the Grace Internet Radio now for 2 weeks and really enjoying it! It may be short on features but is performing very well for me. Very good sound from this radio. Very easy to set up. It's amazing how many stations you can listen to! Wish it had a remote but for the the price it is a real steal in my book! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 It's a great start Friday, January 02, 2009 Heidi from Middletown, MD
I got this radio for my husband for Christmas. He said he wanted a HD radio, but after researching I decided the Grace was a better option, and that internet radio was the way to go. See the CNET review for pro and cons - it was right on. I had no trouble setting it up. And for just one 4" speaker, it sounds remarkably good. Stereo audiophiles will be disappointed if expecting dynamic range. I was afraid the radio would lose any inputs (presets, network key) if unplugged and moved, but I was able to unplug it and take it to another room, plug it back in and pick up where I left off. The radio returns to the same station it was playing when it was turned off, even if the station was not a preset.
This technology is fairly young, and so the radio is quite expensive for what it is. In 2-3 years there will be more options and more features...and by then we will be ready for an upgrade, or addition!
I love being able to choose from thousands of channels for just the right sound for the occassion.
I have noticed decreased response times on my wi-fi laptop when the radio is playing. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 More than expected! Wednesday, December 31, 2008 Steven from Cranberry Twp., PA
Ordered from Buy.com . . . received in 2 days. Easiest device I have ever set up. Worked incredibly well. Don't really need a manual. No need to be a techie either. Performance is superb SO easy to use anyone in a fmaily can use it!
COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. Also, a well made unit.

5 of 5 This is exactly what I was looking for! Monday, October 27, 2008 Michael Duff from North Scituate, RI
After years of streaming internet radio on my desktop computer via Winamp, the little Grace box has since freed me from my computer. It's simple to use, connected effortlessly to my WPA protected wifi network and the consistent connection has seldom needed more than a second or two to re-buffer on the few occasions it did happen.
This little beauty fits right in for my home office. Worth the time researching the offerings beforehand and worth the price in my opinion. Love it! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Grace ITC-IR1000B Wireless Internet Radio Saturday, September 13, 2008 BobF from Painesville OH
Initially, I could not get the unit configured to my network. This was due to a dead wireless router. Once I replaced it, the configuration of the radio went effortlessly.
The few drawbacks featured in a CNET review notwithstanding, theGrace Wireless Internet Radio lives up to its billing. Pandora is a very nice added feature. With "My Stuff", one doesn't bemoan the presence of only 5 presets.
Good buy.
Kudos to But.com; unit arrived 2 days after ordering via normal shipping. Was this review helpful?
