Adapter & Blue MeTM MediaPlayer for iPod and iPhone​

'Lineaccessori of the device that lets you listen on your car - and through the Blue & MeTM, all the music stored on your iPod or iPhone on your last generation.

These media players are not the most configurable and can be used as external drives.

Makes it compatible with Blue & Me ™ also the generations of iPod and iPhone that do not manage the configuration mode as external drive.
Allows:
playing in "digital" music on an iPod or iPhone through the USB connection;
the complete reproduction of the files from iTunes DRM also covered;
to minimize the time indexing also supports with great memories;
maintains the functionality to reload the iPod, your USB port.
You can use sule cars which have the Blue & Me ™ updated with the release of 5.4 software.
WHAT CAN NOT 'TO DO
It is not a memory device and can not be used to store any kind of data.
Not a pen interface to USB or other models of media player.
You can buy the adapter from your Fiat dealer confidence.​

Yep, appeared on the Italian Fiat site with the 5.4 update. You will be able to order it from your dealer. In Italy it costs 89Euro, which I think is way too much for it.

How much i just nearly fell of my chair thats well expensive think i might have to keep my memory stick for a little while longer

wtf 89 euros. And correct me if im wrong, this is the same type of update as the one we are able to download and shove into the Blue&Me?

 

[plant38]

This is a dongle thing that plugs into blue and me, you then plug in your iphone/ipod touch with the cable and you can play music files from your iphone/ipod touch

Or at least thats what i think it does judging from the information given lol...

 

[eki]

yer you're right. After doing a bit of browsing on the fiat italy website, i saw the connection.

 

[plant38]

does anyone have any other info on this as i would like to kno wif it will charge the iphone/ipod touch at the same time as if not then it will be pretty useless as it will just much the battery power of the phone

 

[stanleypnto]

does any body know if this adapter is in English stores yet?

Wonders if we should PM Chris@Souls...... sod it yeps ill get onto it.

 

[Chris@souls]

Hi Guys.

Yes I do have these in stock. They are priced at £71.66 inc vat or £75 inc post

I've sold 2 already but they still look readily available from Fiat

(Although If we can get a few together and do a group buy I'm sure I could bargain on the price even if its only a small saving)

Coolies could we agree to buy but pay separately? What numbers are you looking at for certain price breaks

 

[Chris@souls]

I'll need to see what I can get discount wise from Fiat (being a new product I'd guess not a big amount)

Although off my own back if we can get 7 together I can drop them to £65 posted

 

[alexh365]

£10 is a great start!! 6 more names then....... Not sure its worth starting a group buy thread for this but i neeeeeeeeeeeeeed that adapter! Get Agreeing to buy peeps!!!

 

[Chris@souls]

I Dont think I'll get much better than that in all honesty but a tenner is a decent saving on that. Lets see what interest we get!

You sound desperate Alex? lol

 

[plant38]

do you know if these will charge the iphone/ipod touch at the same time?

 

[Chris@souls]

I have to be honest and admit that I'm no expert on this 'stuff' but I would imagine it would?

I'll dig one out and see if there is any paperwork with it

 

[alexh365]

Well, not desperate but im sick of having to copy my music to both my iPhone and Memory stick.

Also, when TomTom release their app and holder. http://iphone.tomtom.com/ which looks like it has a mini/micro usb jack on it should make b&m into the perfect media/nav/phone/car/awesome thing.

 

[BGreatholder]

im intersted, but want one like.... yestersay.. so im waiting for chris to get back to me and ill have one off him today!

 

[Chris@souls]

Just replied Ben

And looking at the instructions with it yes it does charge whilst in use

 

[alexh365]

Am i right in saying that you only get the Adapter and not the iPhone to USB lead?
