They have a really weird list of counties (bottom left corner). About 100 of them, and I can't understand why they were chosen. A lot of small countries in there, and big ones missing.

#12Is this actually a radio (as in receives terrestrial broadcasts), or just a BT speaker?

Yeah it's an FM radio. It's all over the page. They even have an ambient drone that's sounds like it's time stretched samples from the FM radio.
> have you ever wished you could instantly rewind when listening to the radio, to hear the title of the song just played?
> 72 hrs listening how about normal radio listening for a week without charging?
> if you skip the traditional inputs like line in, bluetooth and FM radio

Also FM radio.

It's endlessly looping at least. BTW whole 2 hours is unheard of even for specialized music looping equipment, most I've seen is about 30 mins.

#16Why no DAB radio?

I wonder which teenagers they target :-)
Re: OB–4 – Portable high fidelity loudspeaker
#18Like the rest of teenage engineering's products, I'm not sure what this thing is about, but I probably will be buying it.

#19might be a fun guitar amp with interesting loop effects

#20I love everything Teenage Engineering make. My first impression is always "eh, that's too weird, who would want that... who is their target market?", and over time end up at "OK, I WANT ONE!". I own way too many of their Pocket Operators now. Though, I REALLY think I'm not their target market here: "designed to be played outdoors, in public spaces and at high volume"... that's exactly situations I now try to avoid. H…
I understand say OP-1. But how much time on average have you spent on each of those pocket operators? And are you able to use it productively after leaving it alone for some time without checking manual?
Personally, when I was commuting for work I would spend the 90 min ride in or back working on some things, though I spent more time with the OP-Z.
Sure it takes time to reacclimate to the controls but these things are not simple machines like bicycles. The overlays with the OP-Z for example are really handy for quick reference.
