BluBridge mini-jack Rx

author Posted by: George on date Jun 3rd, 2011 | filed Filed under: Music

Bluetooth receiver for stereo music on any device

We all know the problem get in to your car connect the wire from your phone to the stereo and yeah now we can listen to the music on our phone.

Some modern cars now start to have a bluetooth option build in that connects your phone automatically when you get in and lets you play your music without any wires.

I like that idea a lot because the wires are always in the wrong spot and always tangled.

After some looking around I found the BluBridge mini-jack Rx witch does that exactly.

Just connect the BluBridge mini-jack Rx to the aux port of any stereo and you are set to go. Press the button and it connects to your phone.

The BluBridge mini-jack Rx has a build in battery that charges through mini USB and comes with plugs and wires to make connecting it a breeze.

Now you can stream your music from your phone in your pocket to your stereo.

Of course you can use this device also at home to stream your music to your home stereo.
They say it has a range of 10 meters (33 feet) so that should be plenty.

Another use is to connected  it to your headphones who then don’t have to be connected to your phone any more.

The only downside I found till now is that you need to press the button to reconnect your phone every time you want to use the BluBridge mini-jack Rx I guess that is to prevent the battery from draining but that is holding me back from buying it right now.

Check out what other think of the BluBridge mini-jack Rx Stereo Bluetooth reciever.

Rocketfish Bluetooth Stereo Headset

author Posted by: George on date Oct 24th, 2010 | filed Filed under: Music

A couple of months ago I got so sick of wires from my headphones that i started the quest for some reasonable priced bluetooth headphones.

It is difficult to find anything in stores and if they have something then there is no real choice because they maybe just have the one kind.

But after a long search i ran into these headphones from Rocketfish the price was just under $70 dollars and although that is more then i would have liked to spend it seemed to be one of the cheaper once.

The headphones come with a usb cable and charging plug and that is all you need.

Just charge them and wait till the light turns blue and you are good to go. I use this headset daily for walking or running and the battery life is great i normally need to charge them every 2.5 to 3 weeks and to me that is fine. One thing i don’t like is that it doesn’t really warn you when they are gone run dry. OK they do but only like 5 minutes before and when i am in the middle of a run that doesn’t help me much.

The ear pieces slide nicely over my ears and stay in place nicely even when running they don’t move. I can even wear my sunglasses with them although i can imagine that this would look pretty funny 🙂

The Rocketfish RF-MAB2 also has a build in microphone so you can use it to do handfree calling and ok i tried  it and it works but i never really used it so that is all i am gone say about that.

I use this headset with my iPhone 3G and pairing is real easy and if you do it once you never really have to do it again. Apple doesn’t support all the buttons on the Rocketfish headset but the once for vollume and to pause work fine but no next and previous tracks sorry, it would have bin nice but Apple does not support that so it won’t work on any bluetooth headset.

So these headphones work great and offer great sound on a rare occasion maybe once a week the sounds start stuttering a bit and although it would be great if that didn’t happen it does so i live with it. The solution is pretty simple turn my bluetooth on my iphone of and on and i am good to go.

My final verdict about the Rocketfish RF-MAB2 Bluetooth Headphones is that i would not want to live without them any more. It is so much better to listen to my music without having to deal with wires getting stuck. The sound quality and battery life are great so this works fine for me.

If you are thinking about some Bluetooth headphones i would say have a look at the Rocketfish RF-MAB2 Bluetooth headphones.

OK so now there is they iPad and people love it but some of you have the need for an external keyboard but don’t feel comfortable to carry around a normal size bluetooth keyboard, for those people we found the solution.

The Freedom Pro keyboard is foldable in to a small case so that it is small enough to easily take with you. folded the keyboard is only 6.4″ X 4.0″ X 0.75″.

And it even comes with a little stand but I don’t know if the stand can hold an iPad because it is made for smart phones.

But as you see there is an small and easy solution for people who travel with iPad and that need a keyboard.
