let's hold our breath for the Degen DE-1108

I don't think I'll be holding my breath on that one, although hopefully
it will prove to be an interesting radio when it materializes. The
dimensions and description, as listed on RadioIntel.com really paint
this radio to be a one-of-a-kind sorta thing. It's supposedly going to
be 14'' wide and 7'' tall, w/two speakers... leading me to wonder if
this is going to be of some sort of small "boombox" appearance.

In any case, I'd just like to know how credible the emerging 1108 story
is...whether its based in any reality. From what I've seen, there was
the little episode in early 2005 where someone started a thread here,
claiming to be doing research in prep for the 1108... Hmmm...
then, months later, this description emerges on RadioIntel that someone
is suppposed to have translated from a Degen user's message board!
Hmmm....
And what a list of features...they just need to add a Holly Hobby Oven
beneath one of the three LCD displays, and it's complete.

It's all possible. But I'm not holding my breath! ;)
