Horrid, to be honest. Doesn’t charge? For $40 I guess you have to sacrifice something.
Maybe I’m missing something but wouldn’t it be easier to just use an av cable with your ipod and just move it to the room you want to use it in? I understand why you might want something like this for a PC but an ipod is probably smaller than the receivers you’d have to set up for this thing.
Here’s what I do: get a earphone-to-stereo/rca plug, connect the iPod to the stereo inputs, plug in a cheapo charger and then you can charge the iPod and play music at the same time. the cable’s about $5 at radio shack or stores like that. why have such a complicated device?
it sounds like an Apple TV would work better for this purpose… (seriously)
With this creative labs thing, how do you know what song you are playing when you are 100 feet away from the ipod screen?
Hm. If I ever decide I want an overly complicated solution to the terrible problem of throwing my iPod into my pocket so I can listen with earbuds or headphones, this is it!
(I bought both the earbuds and the headphones on woot, too.)
