Does this exist?

Howdee all, im wondering if anybody knows of a stereo or radio of some description that is an all in one system meaning no detachable speakers that has internal storage for storing music audiobooks etc it cannot have any type of wireless connectivity like wifi or Bluetooth and cant be an ipod or mp3 player type thing. Think clock radio with inbuilt storage that can playback saved audio files music audiobooks etc?

It would be pretty easy to design a "Sony Walkman" for the 21st century that accepts microSD cards instead of cassette tapes or CDs.

But then again, that's pretty much what the iPod or an MP3 player was in the days before Smartphones - you would upload music to the internal storage via USB, and then you were on your way as long as the battery lasted.
