OK, I'm fed up of finding myself singing the stupid songs the kids listen to while on the bike (aarrrggghhh) so I'm probably going to get an AutoCom headset (anyone used them?).
I want to be able to listen to the radio (4 probably for today/pm) and either minidisc or mp3s from cdr. Thing is, I'm having trouble finding something decent.
Sony have one MD that I can find with an FM tuner, but none of their new USB range seem to have one built in. Also, none of the MP3 playing portable CDs seem to have radio either.
Any suggestions?

Looks interesting - anyone got one?
I've seen a few reports of the radio not being great (so how's it going to be when 'making progress' along the motorway).
Any other suggestions?

Is there a way of getting music onto the MD from a PC with that model? I'd really like to just grab stuff to disk and then fire it out, rather than having to connect up to the cd player etc etc first.
Do you use earplugs? I'm looking at getting an autocom setup but can't find a local dealer with a demo.
Just a bit worried that with the earplugs in (which I need) that I won't hear anything!
