Hi, As you can see, I am behind on email. So this may be solved but I have a wireless unit designed for the blind to digitally send audio from the computer in one room to your receiver in another room. I don't like the speech interface. You can browse for album or song but if you want to directly access a song you have to use a phone key pad thingy to type in the first letters of a song. Well, I am too dense for this to work conveniently for me. I purchased it for about $300 but will sell it for $100 plus shipping. If you are interested, I can find more info on the unit.
Please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] as I am so far behind. At 01:06 AM 2/13/2007 -0800, you wrote: >Thanks! The vast majority of the units I saw on Overstock are the FM >transmitter type.
