This gadget is kind of strange. The S705 SoundPilot connects to your cellphone using bluetooth and lets you listen to music at the same time. When a call comes in, you switch your music off and pick up the call by using the device. It's also got FM radio and 8 hours listening time, 7 hours talk time and 75 hours standby time.

The S705 works with any bluetooth phone or music players that support A2DP. It's also compatible with "Motorola Bluetooth Stereo adapters; PC850 USB for the PC, TEN Technology naviPlay Bluetooth Stereo Adapter for iPod, and DC 800 Bluetooth Gateway for the home stereo system".

While iPods can easily be connected to a stereo, Rathbone said that's a limited solution.
Most people still aren't playing digital music through their home stereos anyway. Rathbone pointed to research by Dallas-based Parks Associates that found while a growing number of Internet users have digital music stored on their PCs, only about 10 percent play that music back through their home stereo system.

It was a breeze to set up a Wireless DJ for testing at home. My family loves it, but it has some glitches.
