MP3 player with remote
(November 12, 2004)
Q Hi. I've been shopping for an MP3 player with a wireless remote (for the convenience) so that I can hook it up to a home system. Any tips would be appreciated.

Other than the Archos AV420, a PVP stacked with features including MP3 playback, we haven't seen a player that ships with a wireless remote control.

However, if you own an iPod, you can go wireless by adding Ten Technology's NaviPod ($50) to the mix. Simply plug the iPod-style receiver into your iPod and control your iPod's volume or music library using a compact, round remote control.
