The Intempo PP-01 retails at £99 and is available now from Tesco, Argos, Comet and John Lewis.

The PP-01 is a dual band slim line DAB digital and FM radio, which is truly portable. It has an integrated rechargeable battery, with 20 hours of playback from a full charge - a must for tuning into DAB digital stations. The LCD screen brings sound to life by displaying the station name and artist playing and the pre set buttons allow 12 favourite stations to be stored.

The powerful NXT stereo speakers form the front fascia of the PP-01 and the protective screen covers click on and off so you can create a unique look. The PP-01 comes complete with two screens - a Japanese flower design and a cool stripe in aqua, white and beige, however, personalising the screens is simple. Choose from your favourite photo, pattern or colour and log on to www.mybiggerpicture.com, to complete your order. Your individual screen will be delivered within 28 days and it costs £14.99 + P&P

The radio screens are exceptional photo quality and with the discreet radio handle, the PP-01 doubles as a photo frame or hang it on the wall or the back of the door and adapt the image design to suit any room in your home.

"We have had fun customising our handbags and our mobile phone covers, but radio has always been too clunky, so we put our DAB radio on a diet and slimmed it down. Now, for the first time we can personalise a radio, making it as user friendly as a mobile phone." Said Rhianon Lucas, Brand Manager at Intempo Digital.

"Today technology is becoming so integrated into our lifestyles we won’t just settle for predictable black and chrome designs, there is more demand and a trend for colour, pattern and personalisation. Our PP-01 is unique as it’s the first truly personalised radio - from wedding, anniversary, Christmas and birthday gifts to complementing your radio to your bathroom towels or bedroom décor the possibilities are endless."

DAB digital is the latest way to listen to radio. Tuning is automatic and station searches are by name not frequency. Digital radio cuts out the background hiss and crackle and there are around twice as many stations as analogue. Digital radio continues to grow in popularity with over three million sets now sold in the UK.
