From a more in-depth article from Ars:

> This "stereo dock" doesn't have a price yet, but it will ship with a preinstalled online radio option, dubbed Poolsuite FM, that Panic says will include "expertly curated Soundcloud playlists that will transport you to a magical, sun-kissed musical zone between the past and the present."

This sounds ... suspiciously like Poolside.fm

It is. Poolside renamed itself to Poolsuite sometime in the past few weeks. They said something about a trademark infringement claim. (Whether that's real or just part of their cultivated image/backstory, I don't know.)
I was also surprised to learn that the Poolside FM app is now called Poolsuite FM

Way to get out of a trademark infringement maybe..?

http://poolside.fm/ also redirects to https://poolsuite.net/

Ahh, interesting! Missed this news. Makes sense.
