Matt from reciva.com sent over a reciva internet radio device shown in the photo. This device, when turned on, will search for available wifi networks in the vicinity. Once logged in to the wifi network, it will enable the user to tune in to any internet radio and play the music.

bitstop is currently testing a new route with Digitel that will connect Digitel's DSL network in northern luzon to bitstop's Data Center. This means that Digitel's DSL subscribers can still access bitstop's hosted content, even if the Binalonan to GCC line goes down!
Our thanks to Mr Stephen Ngo, Junar and Job of Digitel for this testing. Of course, to Mr Al Solis, Vincent, Ed Castillo and last but not the least, Mr Boy Ypaguirre whom bitstop met on the flight back from Tiger airways!
