I’m a real fan of Griffin’s radio SHARK (originally reviewed back in September 2004). The radio SHARK is a US$70 USB radio that comes with software that allows you to record any AM or FM radio broadcast in real time. What makes it cool is that the software allows you to schedule recordings and even pause live recordings – think of it as TiVo for broadcast radio. Radio SHARK is brilliant for fans of FM radio broadcasts like NPR or Howard Stern where you may not be able to listen to it all live.
Griffin has released a major update to the radio SHARK software including the following new features and enhancements:
– New compact, redesigned interface
– Improved scheduling
– Improved 10 band equalizer
– Expanded record/playback, tuning and appearance preferences
– Spectrum visualizer
– Selectable display color
– Dock icon displays station and record status
– AppleScript support
Included in the download is a radio SHARK widget that allows you to control the radio SHARK USB radio from Dashboard. The radio SHARK 2.0 software includes the radio SHARK Dashboard Widget and a PDF manual.
