iPod Accessories

If you regularly plug your iPod into external speakers so that you can listen to your music without headphones, the naviPod will be a welcome addition. It's a remote just for the iPod, letting you adjust the volume, pause songs, and skip backward and...

Navipod Control

I was pretty disapointed to find out that this product did not work with either of our two iPods. Also that it does not come with a docking station so it requires you to buy more equipment to make it work. I am planning on returning it to Amazon.

There is not a lot to this device, but it works just like you'd expect. It has three pieces: (1) An IR sensor. This plugs into the top of your iPod into the remote control jack. Because in this position it blocks the iPod's headphone jack, it also...

Does what it says

Overall I was pleased with this product. It works great from large ranges. I use it in my room with my iPod connected to speakers when I'm lying in bed (yeah I'm very lazy) and you can skip tracks and adjust the volume - both pretty useful functions....
