Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Sony Bluetooth Wireless Transmiter for iPod ...
The Sony transmitter allows you to transmit ipod music from the comfort of your easy chair to a stereo system in the same room. If you use it on an older audio system, one that is not Bluetooth, then you need a Sony bluetooth wireless receiver on the stereo system as well. Both can be purchased through Amazon. For me, the beauty of the transmitter is that I can have the iPod right beside me at all times to benefit from its screen information, album artwork, artist, title, rating, progress bar, etc. Before the transmitter, I tried attaching the iPod directly to the stereo (headphone out to RCA in), but by not having the iPod in hand was a great loss, I felt. The transmitter does not transmit the iPod's volume control signal, so you must have remote volume control on your stereo's remote if that feature is needed.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Sony Wireless X-mitter.
The wireless transmitter works great with my iPod and Jabra headphones. The transmitter uses a lot of power from the iPod battery. Overall it is a good product



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Best A2DP solution for iPhone - other than having it built-in ...
I've been using this adapter for less than a week now, but I have to say that this is by far the best stereo bluetooth solution I've used with my iPhone (come on, Apple - what's the holdup with native A2DP?). I've tried out numerous other adapters, and have been underwhelmed with most of them. Previous offerings have been so poor that I've returned a large number of them after less than a day of use.

Before I bought the Sony, I had been using TEN technology's naviPlay adapter (no longer manufactured). Although good compared to many of the others I've used, its sheer bulk and the need to constantly charge it (with it sometimes "forgetting" that it had been charged) made it a far-from-perfect solution.

Sony's offering, on the other hand, is about as close to perfect as you can get. It's small, fits in the iPhone's docking port securely (my naviPlay didn't always keep a good connection), and uses the iPhone's battery for power. Of course, using the iPhone's battery raises concerns about having to charge the phone more. So far, I've been able to use my 1st generation iPhone and the adapter all day, without having to recharge. It was ridiculously easy to pair with my Motorola S9, and the range is actually better than the self-powered naviPlay. As is the case with other solutions, there is some occasional dropout when outdoors. This is more a limitation of A2DP, and not the device itself. Its black color makes it very unobtrusive, and its small profile makes it easy to use with a number of different case solutions (something I could not achieve with the naviPlay).

All in all, until Apple finally decides to enable A2DP natively, this is the best stereo bluetooth solution out there for the iPhone.



Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - Sony Bluetooth Wirelessdoes not work with iPhone
This Sony Bluetooth Wirelessdoes not work with iPhone and this is not stated in their product brochure.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great product for an unforortunate iPhone shortcoming ...
A year ago I picked up a Jabra BT8010 headset. This is your basic bluetooth headset, except you have the option of plugging in a second speaker for stereo music use. I used it with a Windows Mobile phone and loved the headset, but hated the phone.

My new iPhones lack of bluetooth stereo headphone support really ticked me off. It's dumb, the phone already has a bluetooth radio, I wasn't excited about spending money on adding a dongle to my phone. If I had to, I wanted the best and this Sony unit appeared to be it.

And... it works exactly as advertised! Mostly. Sound quality is perfect, pairing is fast and easy, it appears to have very little impact on battery life, and playback starts very quickly (virtually no buffering).

I expected certain hickups with the iPhone though (this adapter was really intended only for ipods). So what are those kickups? When first plugging in this adaptor you get a warning about it not being designed for iPhone use. It suggests putting your iPhone into flight mode... just click no to this dialog box. Using this adapter while also using WiFi is a no-go. Wifi signal drops to almost nothing the moment the music starts streaming (however this doesn't happen with the Edge data network). My headset allows pairing with two devices, which is good since the iPhone and Adaptor will take up both slots. It switches rather smoothly from music to a call and back. However I've found if I want to use the bluetooth adaptor with any other software (pandora, last.fm, tuner, etc) that I have to start and stop the native iPod app first.

This adaptor is fricken TINY. That's a good thing when using it, but I'm not looking forward to the first time I misplace it.

I sure as heck wish I could charge the phone at the same time I'm using the adapter.

Overall, this Sony adapter does exactly what it was designed to do, and darn near perfectly. But it sure would be nice if Apple would get with the program and add the one feature to their phone that nearly every smart phone offers as a standard.

You can say this about D.E.B.S.: director Angela Robinson’s 2005 feature isn’t very good, but it is surprisingly entertaining. The premise, which bears a passing resemblance to any number of previous films (from Heathers and Clueless to Charlie’s Angels and the Austin Powers franchise), involves a secret government agency recruiting young women as spies, based on their smarts, their ability to lie convincingly, and the fact that they look fetching in ultra-miniskirts. Four of the D.E.B.S. are then charged with collaring "criminal mastermind" Lucy Diamond (Jordana Brewster), who has returned to the States after hatching all manner of nefarious plots overseas. Then comes the twist: Diamond is gay, and one of our heroines, Amy Bradshaw (Sara Foster), unexpectedly finds herself falling in love with her. Out goes the espionage element; in comes the love story, and therein lies the surprise, as this burgeoning lesbian relationship is handled with unexpected sympathy, even tenderness. Sure, the acting, even by veteran grownups like Holland Taylor and Michael Clarke Duncan, is almost uniformly lame, and the script is silly; overall, the film would have to put on considerable weight to even be considered frothy. Still, D.E.B.S. isn’t a bad way to kill a couple of hours. DVD bonus features include a making-of featurette and commentary by Robinson and the cast. --Sam Graham

The teaming of Johnny Knoxville (Jackass: The Movie) and Seann William Scott (Dude, Where's My Car?) as well as the presence of the '70s-flavored car chases that were a specialty of the TV series guarantees that The Dukes of Hazzard will be even more lowbrow than the CBS TV series (1979-85) that inspired it. However, this brain-damaging comedy is more "rehash" than "remake," as good ol' Georgiaboys Luke Duke (Knoxville) and his cousin Bo (Scott) are frequently upstaged bythe General Lee, the Confederate-flagged '69 Charger that they drive, jump, race, and fly in as they smuggle moonshine for their Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson). Meanwhile, cousin Daisy Duke (Jessica Simpson) is reliably available to model her short-shorts (aka "Daisy Dukes") and awesome figure (and let's face it, Simpson's talents pretty much begin and end right there), while corrupt honcho Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds, who should know better) recruits a local NASCAR star to advance his wily scheme of converting Hazzard County into a strip mine. Director Jay Chandrasekhar (Super Troopers) manages to mine some good-natured humor from the movie's oval-track detour and a few colorful supporting players (notably Kevin Hefferman as the Duke's pal Sheev). Otherwise, consider yourself warned: The Dukes of Hazzard is shameless Hollywood product at its most forgettable, trafficking in shameless white, rural Southern stereotypes. If you can make itto the end, there's a blooper reel to reward your endurance. --Jeff Shannon

DVD features
Yes, the unrated edition of The Dukes of Hazzard has nudity... but no, it's not of Jessica Simpson, but topless sorority girls. There are also two sets--"PG-13" and "unrated"--of deleted scenes and bloopers. The four minutes of unrated deleted scenes (supplementing the 25 minutes of "PG-13" deleted scenes) include more sorority girls and a menage à trois for Johnny Knoxville . The five minutes of unrated bloopers (the same amount as the "PG-13" bloopers) feature a few more girls but mostly bad language. Featurettes discuss the Daisy Duke short shorts (and show how you can make your own), car stunts, and the making of the movie (narrated by a cast member of the original TV series). --David Horiuchi
