… it is exclusively available through Orla Kiely and John Lewis this month with expansion to other retailers beginning in early 2011 (hopefully some in the US!).
Here are some details from the press release for those interested in more than its good looks:
Based on the multi award-winning and iconic EVOKE-1S, EVOKE Mio by Orla Kiely is packed with features including digital and FM radio and an input for an iPod/ MP3 player. The radio can also be taken out and about thanks to support for the optional ChargePAK, which gives the user up to 24 hours of portable listening between charges. Other features include an OLED (Organic LED) display which is crystal-clear from any angle and has both manual and automatic brightness controls; textSCAN and Intellitext for pausing and controlling scrolling text and storing information for browsing at a later date; an alarm, kitchen timer and 30 presets.

That's just about the cutest thing I've seen in a long time. Want.
oh yes, this I like.
This is so so cute. Very much a want in my book.
want it! so adorable....
I don't even own an iPod and I want this!
Ack, I'm totally getting it!!!
@rexrayfan, me too.
This may actually convince me to get an ipod.
Radio to match my purse!!!! Lust.
very cute... kind of expensive, no?
This is now officially on my wish list.
Anyone else notice there's no actual ipod dock? It seems like it just has a usb port so your ipod would be lying next to it with a cable between the radio and ipod while you were using it....
I've been wanting this for like ever. So, hopefully, it'll be here in the U.S. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed!
At $250 US dollars, this is on the pricey side. Plus the fact that it does not have an integrated ipod dock makes it not very well-designed.
Wouldn't they have to change the plug type for a US version to sell? It's really cute, though. It looks like a lunch box.
OOh, it has an alarm clock too?? I really might have to get this! I've been looking for a cute, retro-looking radio/ipod player/alarm clock forEVER! The only one I found was on Urban Outfitters, but it had horrible reviews.
Oh, and I don't mind no ipod dock.
If anyone gets this, let us know how it works here!
I don't really like this particular one, and it doesn't look "cute" to me. I think it would look better without the print, but I have to say I love retro looking radios and this one seems particularly well thought out. I wonder what the sound quality is like.
I'd buy one if it had an integrated iPod dock. I like this pattern, but recognize that they should offer others as well.
I'm having trouble imagining that it sounds very good, and while it looks cute, I also imagine, style-wise, a short shelf life.
I've just ordered it (I'm in the UK)... I agree it is a bit pricey but I've been looking for an iPod/DAB that's easy on the eye for a while. I was hoping that Roberts might add an iPod connection to their retro radios but I think this might be better!

Where can one find the canisters in the third picture?
Tamarind, Evoke makes this radio in several different colors. This is just the Orla Kiely edition. You could certainly get this in a solid color (in the UK anyway).
Matteymann, those canisters can be found on eBay.
@Matteyman - The canisters are Orla Kiely for Target. Target doesn't have them anymore but you can find them on Ebay...
Why does an iPod dock make a product superior? I think the docks look weird; I'd rather just attach it via USB. (Oh, no, a cord!)
Super cute pattern. I mostly want the apartment in the above photos, though-- it coordinates so well with the radio that I'm drooling.
Why oh, why do I come here late at night?! I've been looking for a perfect radio for my kitchen but, it must have a doc for my iPod and itouch and future iPhone. Then, I'll need another in my bedroom. An alarm clock, that's the key. Love, love, love the look of this... so, if I oculd wake up to Jon Hamm in my bed and this radio on my night table, I'd know I was either dreaming or I'd died and gone to heaven!
