BREA, Calif., Sept. 8, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- PoGo! Products, Inc. (OTCBB:NWGD), a leader in portable digital audio (MP3) technology and cutting-edge personal electronic products for consumers and businesses, today introduced Radio YourWay(TM), the first portable digital AM/FM Radio Recorder, to the European market.
Radio YourWay, which was successfully launched in the U.S. and Canada, enables users to set a timer or record real-time AM/FM radio as well as listen to their favorite shows at convenient times and locations of their choice. Recording is as simple as pressing a button to record a particular broadcast totally unattended or set it up to record daily or weekly programs. Radio YourWay can also be used as a voice-recorder or to listen to skip-free MP3 music.
"Following the recent launch in North America, we have had such a demand for Radio YourWay in the European market that we enhanced our original model to make it even more functional for savvy consumers," said Andy Park, Vice President of Operations. "By adding a resume function and AM/FM region setting, users can now easily switch their Radio YourWay between Europe and U.S. frequencies. We feel that Radio YourWay will be just as successful in Europe as it has been in the U.S. and Canada."
Since launching Radio YourWay in the U.S. and Canada the product has been well received with very positive sales to date, Mr. Park noted. "The media reception has also been extremely favorable with articles written about Radio YourWay in such publications as the New York Times, CNBC Tech Watch, Forbes, Wired and Popular Science, among many others."
Radio YourWay will be available in Europe at UHU (http://www.uhu.ch) for 175.00 EURO. Consumers may also purchase it from many online stores as well as www.pogoproducts.com.
