victor stream airplane
Hi list, i have the victor stream second generation. i haven't so far, got anywhere withe airplane radio link. is anyone using it successfully, if so can you give me any advice. when i press on airplane, it says 1 bbc world. from there i have no idea how to proceed. i do have a text version of the user guide, which i believe is the latest guide, as i just got it from humanware. if anyone can help, i would be grateful, if only to learn that it works. brian.
RE: victor stream airplane
airplane mode turns on and off the WI-FI capability of the Victor Stream. When WI-FI is on, the Stream will transmit radio signals, which is not desirable while on an airplane; this is the same idea as Airplane Mode on a smartphone. Hth -D Dale E.

Re: victor stream airplane
Do you have the wi fi capability set up. This will allow your Victor to communicate with your computer network and thus to the internet and radio stations.

Re: Iphone 6 not impressed with the speaker.
Having listened to a youtube video on a comparison between the original 5, 6 and 6 plus, I can say that I definitely notice a difference. It's most noticeable between the 5 and 6, but even from the 6 and 6 plus, the plus does sound a little more clearer. Unfortunately, the microphone that the uploader was using wasn't super high quality, but it was certainly decent enough to detect the levels of bass between the 5 and 6. I've also got a buddy who's got a really nice sounding mic, a yeti, and while in stereo, the differences between the two phones is huge, the 5 and 6. Take care. Blessings.

When the Operating System is launched it detects the Dongle thus your Plantronics Headset becomes another sound device which software such as Skype can access. The Headset is build well and design is excellent without a doubt, if you buy one of these models then it should last you for quite some time. Its not a top of the line model but for chats and casual music listening its perfectly fine. Also bare in mind that the Headset is a closed type rather than an open type, - the ears fit into cuffs instead of the Headset sitting on the ears -.

Hi! I saw a review of headphones in a swedish newspaper on the net and found JBL Synchros S500. They seem quite good in sound if i will beleve the review. It also has the feature to connect a cable to it if you do not want to use it as a bluetooth headphones. THe price is a bit steap but ok 2500 sek (swedish crowns) maybe isn't to much. /A
Firefox 33 to Add Voice and Video Calling
Hi all, I don't know if this feature of Firefox will work with screen readers but I've just read that Firefox 33 which is currently in beta will let you make free voice and video calls from Firefox without the need to download any plug-ins or install any additional software. With new stable versions of Firefox being released about every six weeks we should be able to try this feature fairly soon. If you're happy to try beta software you could download Firefox 33 beta 8 which is the latest beta and try the feature now. I'm running version 32 which is the latest stable version so I haven't tried this feature. More information about this can be found in the article at http://tinyurl.com/m67a4yo Regards Steve.

Re: Iphone 6 not impressed with the speaker.
I had no illusions that audio on the iPhone 6 would be lackluster. iTunes is falling behind in innovation with online music services severely out innovating Apple. Apple CEO Tim Cook knew he had an iTunes problem and had to do something different in music for Apple to stay cool. Apple bought Beats Music in part to modernize its music offerings beyond the suburban bland mediocrity that is now iTunes. Beats was acquired in the spring, too early to be incorporated into iOS8 or the iPhone of 2014, the features of which are developed and designed many months in advance. I believe it will be until the 2015 introduction of the new iOS and iPhones will we see what the new people and change in culture will mean for Apple users. One big way for Apple to differentiate itself would be to re-establish the company’s supremacy in online and portable music. I am looking forward to iOS 9 and the iPhone of 2015 to learn about any changes in audio from Apple on mobile devices.

iTunes and Other Music Services
so as to avoid any confusion, iTunes really has nothing whatever to do with an iPhone 6 or any other iPhone model for that matter given that - the version of iTunes that appears on an iPhone - is dependent on the IOS running at the time - in the case of an iPhone 6 that IOS would most certainly be IOS 8 and above -. Is iTunes falling behind the times? It would be if people stopped using it which they're obviously not but I do understand where you're coming from and I think it likely that Apple will merge or form alliances with other Music service, I think Apple bought one recently.

Having listened to a youtube video on a comparison between the original 5, 6 and 6 plus, I can say that I definitely notice a difference. It's most noticeable between the 5 and 6, but even from the 6 and 6 plus, the plus does sound a little more clearer. Unfortunately, the microphone that the uploader was using wasn't super high quality, but it was certainly decent enough to detect the levels of bass between the 5 and 6. I've also got a buddy who's got a really nice sounding mic, a yeti, and while in stereo, the differences between the two phones is huge, the 5 and 6. Take care. Blessings.

Re: iTunes and Other Music Services
Dane, There seems to be some confusion between iTunes the software and the iTunes division at Apple. The company puts all its music efforts in this division, whether or not it calls them iTunes. When it bought Beats Music, Apple signaled that it definitely wants to shake up its music offering. We will see how this plays out in the next year or two. Kelly On 9/30/14, Dane Trethowan grtd...@internode.on.net wrote: so as to avoid any confusion, iTunes really has nothing whatever to do with an iPhone 6 or any other iPhone model for that matter given that - the version of iTunes that appears on an iPhone - is dependent on the IOS running at the time - in the case of an iPhone 6 that IOS would most certainly be IOS 8 and above -. Is iTunes falling behind the times? It would be if people stopped using it which they're obviously not but I do understand where you're coming from and I think it likely that Apple will merge or form alliances with other Music service, I think Apple bought one recently. On 1 Oct 2014, at 10:40 am, Kelly Pierce kellyt...@gmail.com wrote: I had no illusions that audio on the iPhone 6 would be lackluster. iTunes is falling behind in innovation with online music services severely out innovating Apple. Apple CEO Tim Cook knew he had an iTunes problem and had to do something different in music for Apple to stay cool. Apple bought Beats Music in part to modernize its music offerings beyond the suburban bland mediocrity that is now iTunes. Beats was acquired in the spring, too early to be incorporated into iOS8 or the iPhone of 2014, the features of which are developed and designed many months in advance. I believe it will be until the 2015 introduction of the new iOS and iPhones will we see what the new people and change in culture will mean for Apple users. One big way for Apple to differentiate itself would be to re-establish the company’s supremacy in online and portable music. I am looking forward to iOS 9 and the iPhone of 2015 to learn about any changes in audio from Apple on mobile devices.
