A cheap and cheerful solution lacking in quality

Advantages: An easy and very cheap solution
Disadvantages: Poor quality, poor sound quality, dated technology

...product, so I purchased the Belkin tape solution in the first instance. ****Compatibility**** The Belkin cassette adaptor works with all I-Pods, regardless of the type, be it nano, shuffle, classic or touch. It can also be used with all other MP3 players, including those that a basically a flash drive. In fact, this product is compatible with all music players with a headphone socket. ****Installation**** Simply plug the cassette adaptor in ...
...****Price and availability**** The Belkin cassette adaptor cost £12.10 from ebuyer.com, although it is available from many other places. Before buying I would recommend carrying out an internet search as you could probably find a good deal. ****Conclusion**** Whilst reasonably cheap this product, in my opinion, is not worth buying as it does not represent value for money. The I-Pod has great sound quality, even through its headphones, and by ...

Save your Touch from scratches

Advantages: Works, cheap
Disadvantages: Headphone socket may be covered

...ones at over £200. The Belkin was on Amazon at only £4.99, though had apparently been on sale at closer to £20. I thought it was worth a go as I was going to have to buy without seeing it in the flesh, and fiver seemed worth a punt. The case is leather, and comes in black or brown [mine is brown]. It's mainly plain leather, though there is a hexagonal pattern on the bottom quarter of the front. The cover is kept shut by a Velcro fastening and the ...
...has been around since the iPod Touch was introduced in version 1; mine is version 2 but it fits fine. There are gaps at the bottom to plug in the USB cable and for the headphone socket [this on is almost covered by part of the case, but is usable]. At the top of the case you can access the on/off switch, and you can also use the volume controls [though not when the case is shut]. In the pack there is also a screen protector. I missed this at first, ...

Great sound

Advantages: Does its job and very reasonably priced
Disadvantages: Could be a little longer

...up to it with a Belkin VGA cable. This was great, until I found out that I didn't actually have a speaker cable. This meant that I had a really great picture on a huge screen but no sound. As you could probably imagine I was just a little bit peeved at this so I searched all around my house and found that I didn't have a audio cable free to use on the computer (I was using a monitor with a built in audio cable so I never had any need for one before) ...
...must have a thing about Belkin there lol) and bought this audio cable. All I needed was a simple cable with a male connector on each end, and that's all I got. It has no bells or whistles, it just does its job. Its 1.5 metres long so its long enough for what I need but they could have made it a little longer just to give you the option of being able to have more room between the 2 connecting objects. It cost a very reasonable £3.00 so I wasn't complaining ...

Very good but tears after a while

Advantages: Grips to things, keeps your ipod safe
Disadvantages: attracts dust and tears quickly

This product is highly reccommended. Not only does it protect your ipod from getting scratched and dirty, but the silicone texture allows it to grip to things, such as in a car. It is very easlity to put on to your ipod, it just slides on like a sock. The only negative aspect is that it attracts dust, and although ive had mine for 2months- it is starting to tear at the bottom wear the earphones are inserted. but for the low price you cant really ...

Decent sound - not bad

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: None for the price

This is just budget cable I use for connecting my mp3 player to my home hi-fi setup, I also use this cable for connecting my laptop to my hi fi. It is basically a mini-phone stereo 3.5 mm - male on the one end - plugs into your headphone socket in your laptop for instance, and on the other end has 2 x RCA - male connectors, which plug into a normal Hi-fi around the back, left and right channel. This is a standard connection on both ends, nothing ...
...5m long, made from the usual black plastic, with rubberised ends to stop the cable from snapping and degrading on the pressure points, the cable I have takes a lot of abuse on the ends and has been reliable for a long time. Sound quality is pretty good, plenty good enough for most audio poeple, but not going to be good enough for when you have spent £500 on a home Hi-fi amp, you will want a much thicker oxygen free cable, something like copper. This ...
