    As per title, really.
    I'm moving to England soon and want to get a Walkman-sized DAB to listen to on the train but I'd also like to use it as a radio alarm at home (attached to speakers)
    Any recommendations?

    Looking here I don't think there is such a device.

    Having bought a Roberts Radio from Simply Radios in the past, I can say that they are an excellent retailer. However, lots of DAB hardware information can be found at http://www.radio-now.co.uk/ too.

    The nearest thing you'll get to what you're looking for is the Oono MiniDAB one & the Oono MiniDAB 2 plus 2. They have timer settings which can be used to record programmes or playback either live radio or MP3 files. No snooze feature though, but you can always work around that. Just record a MP3 of your favourite alarm clock noises! It's the only portable around at the moment with a built in speaker AFAIK.

    I don't have one, so can't really review it, but if you Google you should find more about whether it suits your needs or not.

    HTH,
