Kyocera Bluetooth Music Gateway streams jams from your mobile

Kyoceras Bluetooth Music Gateway most definitely isnt the first of its kind, but the dashing musical liaison is indeed adding a hint of differentiation to the streaming Bluetooth middleman category. Encased in a sleek black / metallic gray enclosure "about the size of a deck of playing cards," the three-ounce BT-enabled device receives streaming tunes via your A2DP-capable cellphone, DAP, or PMP, and then channels the audio to your home stereo via a pair of stereo RCA cables. Furthermore, users with an AVRCP device can enjoy volume / track control right from their mobile, removing the need for a separate remote control and furthering its overall appeal -- and before the non-Bluetooth users go crying foul, Kyoceras also offering up an optional $34.99 adapter that converts any 3.5-millimeter stereo jack into a Bluetooth transmitter. The Bluetooth Music Gateway should be landing sometime in the April timeframe, and youll be looking at $99.99 with the Wireless Audio Adapter thrown in, or $79.99 without.

Audi unveils enviable MMI for upcoming A8 sedan

Darren Murph   Year:by , posted Jul 22nd 2008 at 10:02AM   Source Site:engadget

For the acronym-challenged, Audi is getting serious about its Multi Media Interface. The automakers present system is widely regarded as the best of the best already, but its staying one step ahead of itself with the revamped version prepped for the A8 luxury sedan. Within the whip, youll find a 7-inch LCD with an 800 x 480 resolution alongside a DVD drive, 40GB internal hard drive, Dolby Digital 5.1 support, optional analog / digital TV tuner, Bluetooth, twin CPUs (800MHz and 500MHz), NVIDIA graphics for "genuine 3D maps" and an optional (but necessary, really) Audi Music Interface for connecting your favorite PMP.

Pioneer issues firmware update for screwy AVIC F-Series navigators

Darren Murph   Year:by , posted Jul 22nd 2008 at 10:02AM   Source Site:engadget

Just over a month after the internet got all fired up about the problematic AVIC F-Series navigators, Pioneer has come to the rescue (we hope, anyway) with a free firmware update. Aimed specifically at the US-based AVIC-F90BT, AVIC-F900BT and AVIC-F700BT, the update will reportedly "improve overall system performance and resolve certain software issues." The outfit also notes that the AVIC-F500BT doesnt need the upgrade, and even if your unit has been a-okay thus far, it still recommends applying the software. Take ten minutes or so and see what the latest firmware has to offer, and be sure to let us know if all (or some) of the kinks have indeed been ironed out. [Thanks, Steven]...
