Re: Mac Mini possible convert...

["Shaf Ali" <shaf@xxxxxxxx>]

Bought the iriver H340 a few months back.... great machine great sound....

Then found out that you can get a bus adapter that allows 3rd/4th gen ipods
to be connected up to a car head unit and interface just as it is a CD
Changer ..... DOH !

I'll prolly will get the mini with the adapter (60 squid off edworthys)
when
I get some me me me time at the moment burning cdrw at 32x will do for now.

Huh just thinking about it - it appears that I have never bought anything
made by the apple corp - this will change in the near future - maybe ?
