Product Description
Drive + Play puts the familiar iPod menu on a backlit display right on your car’s dashboard, where you can read it at a glance. The system is controlled by an intuitive interface that mimics the navigation on your iPod, and is just as easy to use - browse by artist, album, song, genre or composer. Mount it someplace convenient and you can scroll through playlists or switch tracks at your leisure, all while keeping your eyes on the road.
Simple controls
The control knob is virtually identical to iPod’s Click Wheel so it is immediately familiar to iPod users. With three mounting bases for the most comfortable placement, the Drive+Play will be your right-hand man.
Nerve center
The brain is the hidden central hub of the Drive+Play. You can connect your iPod and place them both out of sight under a seat, in the glovebox or in the centre console, with no messy wires and no chance for damage to your iPod. It even charges your iPod when it’s plugged in.
Multiple mounting options
You can connect Drive + Play in one of two ways. Use a 3.5mm audio line output or the wired FM transmitter with five preset frequencies.
Auxiliary in
The unit has a second auxiliary input to provide access to other audio devices like navigation or mobile phone without unplugging your iPod.
Compatibility
The Drive + Play works with 3rd, 4th, 5th generation iPods, iPod mini and iPod nano. (I have also connected it successfully to my 6th generation 80G ipod.)
