naviPod by TEN Technology


The naviPod adds an IR remote control to your iPod. The package includes the remote receiver, the transmitter, and a handy stand that keeps your iPod upright so that it can better receive the control’s transmissions. Installing the naviPod is a breeze. You simply plug the receiver into the Headphones and Remote ports on the top of your iPod; the receiver includes a Headphones port in which you can plug an output device, such as speakers or headphones.

After you remove a battery protector from the handheld control/transmitter, you are ready to go. The handheld control replicates the playback controls on the iPod (everything except the Menu and Select buttons) and includes Volume buttons. As long as you have the control in the line-of-sight of the receiver, you can control your iPod remotely. The unit’s range and performance is similar to IR remote controls for your television or other devices. The naviPod is a must-have accessory if you use your iPod with a home stereo or car stereo.
