Insignia is the house brand BB slaps on devices made by a variety of 
manufacturers. I'm not sure who's actually making this unit. It's the 
same one I saw at the NAB show in Las Vegas in April, when it had a 
"KRI" label on it. No AM, just FM analog/HD. They were claiming four 
hours of battery life then...now they're claiming "up to" 10.

I'm feeling slightly peeved that Tom and Radio World both got to play 
with pre-production test units - I asked, too, and nobody ever got back 
to me...
