Apple ipod accessories

[MrsStevieG]

Hi guys

I'm a bit clueless when it comes to technology so would appreciate your help. Am looking for a car connection and a dock and speakers for an ipod classic. Where's the cheapest place online/shop to buy them and which is the best one to buy?(think there's different types??:confused:)

Yeah that's what I'm on about alright!. And then the dock thing with the speakers that you can sit your ipod into and play it at a party or whatever.

Sorry I sound like a spa:o -they are for presents, I don't even own an ipod so haven't a clue.

On the belkin site run your mouse ove the Ipods at top of page and click the one you want it will show you the accessories for that model.

Or you could try ebay

The radio accessory is the iTrip (link below) you can get this in the O2 stores for about €40.

While this is a good item it can be a pain in the hole sometimes as you have to find a frequency that is 'dead air' for it to work and in urban areas that can be hard, you also usually have to turn up the volume a bit more than usual to get good sound but be warned if the radio picks up a radio frequency on the one you are using it will override the ipod.

For your iPod dock if you actually go into Argos virtually all stereos now have an iPod adapter built in that will be in the product description and may not cost any more than dock made specifically for the iPod.

I wouldnt recommend radio transmitters. Have tried a few and wasnt happy with any.

The dock, I got one for 99euro and it does a very good job .
It probably depends on how much your spending .

Thanks for that lads, good suggestions there. Will look into them.

Ah that's cr*p about the radio connections - thought they would be really handy. Save bringing CD's etc.
