Yep Tonky, it is...but believe it or not it seems to give a better sound than my Alpine disc changer in the boot does!!!!

as I said - mounting it is the only prob I have.....may resort to velcro...


Theres probably another way you can take the unit out and make a direct 'fulltime' lead connection into the back (for those who want it tidier or those who have a straight CD head unit).

Like I said, it's a great and very useful toy....

 

cnicho.

You got a P.M.!

 

Just had a look at this but, according to the technical spec it seems to require a Mac which infers it won't work with a PC. Is this correct?

"Requirements
Apple computer with built-in FireWire port

Mac OS 9.2 (or later) or Mac OS X v10.1 (or later)

iTunes 2 software (included) "

 

Pete,

That's what Jigsaw are telling me, I've just PM'd cnicho on it!

I've got the firewire port on the laptop!

 

Chaps,

you DO need a firewire - these are common on Mac's - less so on PC's
- (the Creative Labs MP3 player just uses a USB lead which is standard to all PC's but is slower for up/downloads....

iPOD IS originally designed for Mac...but

scroll down to the PC user part - official softeware is on the way but 'unofficial software is already on the web...

- just buzz me if you need any more..

Thanks amigo!

I must say I fancy the iPOD rather than the Creative Labs and it looks like the software solution is available! I'm still VERy tempted!

 

and there's more....

Having followed the last link, I'll have a lookat some alternatives. Doesn't seem all sweetness and light. I've been thinking about an MP3 player for some time so I don't want to do the wrong thing. Thanks for all the info!
