Great way to hold and hear your 2G Nano, October 6, 2006

By Darwin “Computer consultant” (Redmond, WA United States) - See all my reviews

First and foremost–I am not an audiophile, so I can’t comment with any authority on the quality of the headphones themselves. They are fine for me and my listening habits–I find myself increasingly listening to podcasts when commuting via bus for which these headphones are perfectly fine, although when I do listen to my music the bass and treble response seems fine to me.

That being said, what I wanted was a convenient way to carry my 2G Nano so I could listen and manipulate the controls with the iPod handy yet out of the way. This lanyard does an excellent job of providing that and I would recommend it to anyone.

So why four stars? Well, for a few reasons:

–Only available in white. I have a black 2G 8GB Nano. I’d have liked to match it.

–No lock or release on the base that connects to the Nano. While the connector does fit snug with the Nano and doesn’t disconnect so easily from the Nano that I’d fear it might fall off while walking about, I would have felt more secure with some sort of lock or release mechanism holding it in place.

For this reason I would not recommend the lanyard to anyone doing any sort of strenuous activity or exercise–but hanging loose around the neck really isn’t the best place for the Nano then anyway. The armband would be more appropriate.

–NOWHERE on the packaging did it say this was for the 2G Nano! I had bought a 1G Nano lanyard at a local store and had to return it when I discovered it was incompatible (the dock connector and headphone jack on the 1G and 2G Nanos are NOT the same distance apart). When this 2G lanyard arrived, I could find nothing on the package that said “for 2G Nano”, so I opened it very gingerly thinking I had received the wrong lanyard and would need to repackage it and send it back. I was very relieved when it did fit! Regardless, there should be a very clear “For 2G Nanos only!” label on the box to alleviate 2G Nano owners’ fears and to warn 1G Nano owners.

All in all, I am very happy with the lanyard. It keeps the Nano handy while leaving my hands free, and that was what I was looking for.

Apple iPod Radio Remote MA070G/B

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Listen to FM radio on your iPod and control everything with a convenient wired remote. You also get a set of earphones with a shorter cable that’s a perfect fit for the remote. Compatible with iPod nano and iPod with video. Just plug in your iPod Radio Remote and select “Radio” from the main iPod menu. Tuning takes place right there in the color display with your Click Wheel, just as you’d set a classic analog radio. Easily mark a favorite station for quick access later, and switch between favorite stations using either the iPod or the remote. If you’re listening to a station that supports the Radio Data System (RDS) standard, you can even see song title/artist or radio station information in the iPod display. The iPod Radio Remote supports FM stations from 87.5 to 107.9MHz (in both the US and European standards) and 76 to 90MHz (the Japanese standard). You can switch between the different standards when traveling.

With the wired remote, you can control slideshow, video and music playback Ñ adjust volume, skip forward/back within a playlist — plus switch between radio stations and turn the radio on or off, even if your iPod is in your pocket or backpack. Clip the remote to your lapel, shirt or collar for easy access, and activate the hold switch to eliminate unwanted button presses.

At just over half an ounce in weight (15.7 grams), the compact remote features a simple, familiar interface and plugs into the Dock connection on your iPod or iPod nano. The included pair of Apple Earphones has a cable that’s a few inches shorter than a standard earphone cable, making it the perfect fit. You can plug it into the 3.5mm stereo minijack port on the remote, or use another favorite set of earphones.

Because the iPod Radio Remote is powered by the iPod itself Ñ no extra batteries required — using the FM radio will affect iPod playback time.

iPod Compatibility
iPod nano 1G, iPod nano 2G, iPod 5G/5.5G Video
