Anyone heard an rumors or confirmed sightings of upcoming DAPs with either abuilt-in FM radio, or add-on? Current model selection seems pretty limited, so I've been waiting for new models to come out.

I'm checking out the Xen and the iops/jos mp-130/sorell sf1200 right now.. both have fm and fm-recording.

Among the major DAP players, the iRiver H-series has a built FM tuner.

You can add an FM tuner to the old Creative Labs Nomad Zen 2.0/Firewire, upcoming Zen Touch, NJB3 and Muvo2 via the optional FM wired remote.

You can also add an FM tuner to the Dell DJ via an optional FM wired remote.

You used to be able to add an FM tuner to the Apple iPod via an add-on called the iFM, but I don't think they make it anymore.

I'm sure this feature will be much more prevalent among newer players coming out.

I am enjoying FM rradio with my Sangean 200x - so reviving this thread, any quality DAPs out there with inbuilt FM radio?

My LG V30+ has an FM tuner. It's not a DAP but it performs like one.

Could you change FM stations using side buttons while on a long run or do you have to use the touch screen to change stations?
Sadly, I sold my V30+. What a mistake...
