Perfect iPod Remote!!October 23, 2008 I have a fourth generation iPod Nano and I recently got this remote for it. There's a lot of speculation over the distance of this device, but this remote actually does work up to 100 feet as advertised. Those who found the remote to only work up to 2 feet might not have a newer ipod. This is just an assumption. I know it works for the 4th gen for sure. In fact, it works perfectly. Through walls and ceilings, it doesn't matter. This device will be detected up to 100 feet.
Also, I tested to have the iPod play for a bit and try the remote again. There was no delay and there was no need to "wake" it up before using it again!
For anyone else out there who has this for a a different model iPod, please post up a review for others to know that it works.
Ipod RemoteOctober 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After reading the reviews I decided to purchase the remote. Pros: keeps my eye on the road, works great, immediate response by Ipod!
Cons: It slips a little on the sterring wheel, don't like the feeling of the velcro on the outside of the wheel when making turns (it feels like a large spot of sandpaper as I let the wheel slide through my fingers)
Other than that it's a GREAT Product
I would recommend it to others!
Two of the seven buttons do not workSeptember 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I like the idea of the product. However, maybe I am missing something here, I could not get two of the seven buttons to work. They are the "Play List Song Select" and "Play List Random" buttons. I've read the manual and searched Scosche's website and could not find a solution.
The basic functions of the other five buttons do work. These are the Volume Up and Down, Track Forward and Backward, and Pause/Play/Sleep buttons. However, I could not do "press and hold" to move forward or backward within a track. According to the manual these should work.
Also, from my remote although I could put my iPod to sleep, I could not do the reverse action of waking it up.
Works Great on my MotorcycleSeptember 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've ridden through 200 miles of RAIN and it still worked. I use it every time I go for a ride.
Excellent AccessoryAugust 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent addition to my iPod Touch. I use it primarily in my car where my pod is connected to the aux input of the car's stereo. Power connects to the pod via this unit so keeping the pod charged in a non-issue. I use the remote (fob) to change/replay songs and adjust volume and it works great because I don't need to touch the pod at all. I've been recommending this gadget to my friends. It also works great outside the car and I've used it to listen music, again, without actually touching anything other than the fob.
For those who are somewhat put-off by the appearance that this thing straps on to your steering wheel, you should know that it doesn't have to. you can use the remote independently. The remote (fob) is approximately 1 inch tall, 3/4 inch wide and 3/8 inch thick. It works great.
