If the BC246T turns out to be the hit I think it will, then this could be a great feature to add to the next generation digital. I found a radio product that is using the Secure Disk/MMC for storage for recording AM/FM audio. This is an great feature that could be used and maybe it could also be set up to handle the radio memory:
Radio YourWayTM AM/FM Radio Recorder
"Record over 4 hours of AM or FM broadcasts for later playback (32MB Internal Memory)"
"Connects to your PC USB port for the transferring of files."
"SD (up to 256MB) / MMC (up to 128MB) expansion slot for adding additional memory."
