Don't you think the new PC12 radio from LG looks like a little dinosaur egg? Well, it might, but some say its annoyingly oval shape looks rather futuristic. So, I suppose you could kill that prehistoric idea and think of it as a device coming from the future, or given by the aliens as a Thanksgiving gift.

Either ways, technically speaking, the bizarro LG's PC12 radio is nothing to die for. It is packed with a HD radio tuner, which is a better alternative to the usual AM/FM tuner, an easy to use night stand alarm clock and a "never-ending" screen display.

The best part is to come. The portable device comes with an integrated USB port, which basically means this baby can stream tunes from flash drives or MP3 players.

According to Gizmodo, when creating the table top device, LG "utilized the latest technologies to make the PC12 one of the most innovative and visually appealing audio systems." Moreover, " PC12 is the first system to offer HD Radio technology. HD Radio enhances AM and FM broadcasting with an increased number of channels and improved sound quality. In addition to playing AM and FM stations with HD sound, the HD radio displays broadcast information including station name, artists and song titles. "

The only major issue of this nice tabletop radio is the fact that the weird design line is actually taking a lot of its functionality, as there is no extra space for wide stereo speakers or comfortable to use controls. As you can see there is a rather bloody red frame which makes the radio look like it has just been cut in two.

Sadly, it's too soon for pricing and availability details!
