I have never been one for music on a bike. But for really long trips it nice to the Hanna Montana that my daugther listens to out of the noggin. I was looking for something that would allow me to easily reach and control my iPod most importantly volume.

Finially I found the iJet. Available for about $35 it is a RF remote control, waterproof and it has a pass through for the charger or speakers. So you simply plug this into the bottom of the iPod and wait about 30 seconds, then you are good to go. I have the remote (even though it is waterproof)inside the clear pocket of my tankbag which allows me to easy access. I am addicted to my iPod once again.

This device does not work with the iTouch or iPhone.

OK, go slowly I'm just barely able to use my Ipod.
Waz it do for you? If what I think it does it may be what I'm looking for.

Help out a techno challenged geezer.
Thanks

What is does is give you a waterproof remote control that works up to 150' away from the unit. I use it like this:

I put the iPod, iJet unit and charger plug deep in my tank bag. The remote gets mounted on my fairing. I get to change songs, adjust volume easily without the risk of the iPod itself getting wet or falling off my bike.

The remote uses lithium batteries that last a long time.

Guys,

I just put my iPod nano in the clear map pocket of my tank bag- Why the need for a remote?

Under the clear cover it is very waterproof (checked the last two months of weather in the northeast USA lately?) and all the iPod controls- including volume- work through the plastic and my thinner summer gloves.

Just my own input.

John
