Customer Reviews
A little expensive, but very good radio option.
I wavered back and forth whether to buy this or not because of not only the price, but the reaction to it. As someone still waiting for a 5G mic attachment, I wanted to add some kind of extra accessory to my new iPod, and after doing some comparison (and a $5 discount from Amazon), I bought the Radio Remote.
First of all, the remote works very well and is perfect to clip on your jacket so as you walk around you don't keep having to reach into the pocket for the player to change tracks or pause. It's perfectly sized, although with my wrap-around headphones it adds length to the cord I have to rein in, but clipping in cord length into the lapel keeps it in control.
$50 for something you already have
LP in his review suggests that the FM function is already built into the new generation of iPods, and I am going to say that that is a certainty - there is no electronic circuitry built into the radio/remote; its only function is to activate the tuner in the iPod. Apple adds a remote because the radio must have an antenna - the remote and earphone cords. And they throw in a pair earbuds. All together I would think that the total OEM cost of the radio/remote is less than $5; your $50 just activates the radio already built in.
