iPod remote control May 12, 2007 Excellent product for the price. I use it all the time with my home stereo. The remote is very small and easily misplaced though.
Stay away from this dangerous remote December 13, 2005 I bought this remote and hooked it up one evening. It worked okay, but it is picky about the line of sight. However, the next morning I looked at my iPod and was horrified to see that it had discoloured the screen. There was a yellow and purplish rainbow effect across the top of the screen and since it radiated from the sensor on the remote receiver it left no doubt that the DLO iDirect remote had caused the discolouration. I was afraid that if I continued to use this remote probably after a week the screen would be completely black. I called the manufacturer and they tried to pass off responsibility to the store that sold it to me. So if you value your iPod, stay as far away from the DLO iDirect remote as possible. This thing is dangerous.
Very disappointed December 6, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I was very disappointed with the Dlo remote control for my ipod. What's the point of a remote when it has to be an inch away with a direct line to the senor? I brought it back to the store and decided to give it another try with a different brand. I got the Griffin AirClick which was a couple of dollars cheaper and you can point it wherever you want and the ipod responds.
Cheap Garbage October 3, 2005 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this thinking that I would get a great remote for the price. WRONG! Not only does it have to be line of site, you can be directly in front of it and it still won't work. I would NOT recommend this remote. A RF remote, any of them, would be money well spent compared to this cheap made
extremely poor quality October 1, 2005 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is one of those times when a review can really save the people that come after. One person can save the rest a great deal of annoyance and hassle.
This product is very cheaply made (white sticky paper is actually used in the contruction, I kid you not). The one I purchased broke at a weak place at the base of where it attaches to the iPod. It's actually a potential danger to your iPod, in my opinion. The company will not stand by it at all. Customer service at Digital Lifestyle Outfitters proved to be both a joke and waste of time.
It is very overpriced for what you receive. It has poor range and must be in direct line of sight to work. The device is not particularly responsive to it's own controls either. Another obvious problem is that the tiny remote itself has no way to attach itself to anything so it's one second away from being easily mislaid. The product is fairly bulky and not particularly attractive in real life, especially the part that attaches to the iPod. It's really useless for most anything but while the iPod is sitting in the charger.
This was a MAJOR disappointment, a waste of money and certainly not worthy of my iPod.
