Recently I've came across a rather new device - Voiis Stereo, which is a wireless music gateway manufactured by Mobile Action Technology, Inc. Now I want to share with you my thoughts about this gadget.
Voiis Stereo is a two-way gateway (it operates bi-directionally), and after the first sight it reminded of Motorola DC800 that I've tested some time ago. Still, Voiis is not so clumsy!
Appearance
Well, at ones I was a little bit surprised with its size. In photo it seemed to be bigger. Though, some users complain that it is too big. But you should take into account that this gadget is intended for home usage and shouldn't be pocket-sized. With its beautiful design it will perfectly blend with the interior and add style to your room. Moreover (and very important) its size gives more technical possibilities to increase the connection stability and the range, which is stated to be 100 m.
The device has white casing, but its front side is black with Voiis logo. You will see only one Function button of the same black colour and three LEDs: one for the Music Transmit, one light for the Music Receive, and the Bluetooth indicator. On the back of the Voiis Stereo you will find a 3.5mm line-in and 3.5mm out jacks, Mini USB and Power connector. Thanks that you can manage without wall outlet.
FreeTek released the EG100 watch phone. Currently such a gadget is to catch on, as I see. If you are not against changing a mobile phone to this dubious device, you'll be interested that the EG100 offers an audio and video playback and has an integrated FM radio. The internal memory differs from 512MB to 2GB. The watch phone supports A2DP, by the way. Looks nice... That's all I can say.
