Bluetooth Enabled MP3 Players

[kentompkins]

I've finally decided to stop struggling with my Iphone-->Zumo550-->Sena SMH10 connection problems and buy a Bluetooth-enabled MP3 player. The problem is I need something with, say, 16 gigs of storage (I like to listen to lots of tunes and all day long on the Spyder). I have an Ipod Nano and a Bluetooth dongle but there is not enough storage for my tune collection. Also the dongle drains the power from the Nano after a few hours.

Anyone got suggestions?

Doesn't your iPhone have BT? I listen to my tunes thru my iPhone's BT to my Cardo and absolutely love it!

Any player transmitting Bluetooth will be a battery hog.

Sure thing but does it work when you connect it to a GPS unit as well. For some time, I have connected my Iphone to my Sena and ignored my GPS because I knew where I was going. On Wed. I leave for the 3 Lakes in 3 Days trip and need the GPS because I'm going through Canada on roads I haven't been on for 50 years. All of this means that neither the Ipod app in the Iphone nor Pandora works.

The Sena allows for two Bluetooth connections: (1) from the GPS unit and (2) one from an MP3 player -- hence my query.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. Using the connection you describe allows me to listen to Pandora all day long -- song after song -- in stereo.

Ken,

You got rid of your G4?

I find that it works pretty well now....
