Nuttin' to do with trailers

Since this group harbors some of the best real-world techies and engineers I've found may I ask a Xmas-present related question?
Penny's sewing room CD/AM/FM player died and I'd like to get her a new one. I can't seem to find one (looking online) that is a DIGITAL radio with a CD player. Am I missing something?

I think Sony is one of the very few manufacturers left who make them...

Thanks for the lead.

Digital FM stations are not wide spreed at this point there are a few out there but the radios will play just fine on regular FM. I would doubt that a small portable would be able to take advantage of digital broadcast quality any way.

It's not the quality. We have a digital NPR station out of Va. Tech that Penny likes to listen to when our local, analog station switches to music programming.
My local Wal-Mart has the Sony,

Thanks guys,

There are quite a few DAB radios out there ebay has a large listing.

Also try DAB USA radios there are a lot from GB so make sure you are looking at a US version.
