Insignia gives portable HD radio second chance

Last year, Best Buy’s Insignia brand made a minor splash by introducing the first portable HD radio player, priced to fly out the door at $49.

For the second-generation of the player (NS-HD02), Insignia is giving its HD radio the Nano treatment by switching to a 2.5-by-3-inch capacitive touch-screen interface and introducing a Live Pause feature that can cache up to 15 minutes of a live broadcast.
