TuneView for iPod provides a new wireless way to manage your music throughout your house or office. TuneView for iPod consists of a universal iPod dock, 2-way RF remote with color LCD screen, a USB power adapter, audio and USB cables, and selected dock adapters. According to the Tuneview website, these components allow you to:
- Connect the iPod to a stereo or powered speakers using the line out jack
- Connect the iPod to a TV using the S-Video jack
- Charge the iPod from an AC outlet using the USB Power Adapter
- Browse and control the iPod from around the house with LCD remote
The TuneView base features S-Video output to a television, and also connects to a computer through USB and to a stereo system. It’s compatible with the iPod mini, iPod nano, fourth-generation iPod and fifth-generation iPod. It comes with a USB power adapter, USB cable and audio cables. It comes with dock adapters to fit certain iPod models.
Tuneview could turn your iPod into an audio server. I think this concept has potential, though the LCD looks pretty small for my tastes. For a price tag of about $180, it rivals the Logitech Wireless DJ and is considerably cheaper than the Sonos music system.
