Re: [Techno-Chat]: DTS Play-Fi: set your wireless music free!

I use the Chromecast though the Chromecast is somewhat different from Play-Fi, Play-Fi - at its heart - is a multi device/multi room platform based around audio quality and not video. At the heart of Play-Fi - apart from the compatible devices themselves - is the Play-Fi App which is very

[Techno-Chat]: List Modification

Hello everybody In response to repeated requests, on and off list, for the below information, I have added it as a footer to all posts to the group. I hope that this will avoid the need for repeated requests. I can now also announce a new way of reading list posts. (See below).

Re: [Techno-Chat]: Amazon Echo

Hello Mary I must get around to writing to you off list, time for a catch-up I guess. Regarding the Echo, can I suggest that you hold off for a couple of months? My information is that the next generation of Echo, Echo Dot and Echo Tap aren’t far away. I have no information as to whether the

Re: [Techno-Chat]: Apple Sees The Light!

The last MacBook I saw had USB3.0 host ports. But that was in 2014. I have not yet had the opportunity to play with the new MacBook Pro models. But I’m sure that there will be, or have been, changes. I’m equally sure that the MacBook Air is due for a revamped model shortly, inline with the more

Yes, there will undoubtedly be a market niche for it. I still think that the ElBraille offers more functionality and, interestingly, at a cheaper price. Even though you still then have to buy a Braille display, and you need a screen-reader. JAWS is not a mandatory add-on, however, NVDA will

Re: [Techno-Chat]: DTS Play-Fi: set your wireless music free!

In my own circumstances, I have never really followed up wireless streaming, although of course, the Google Home and Amazon Alexa-based devices do just that. But my main issue is that, to date, I cannot steam video. That was why I jumped in and bought a Neo box. Sadly, however, I’ve had it for

Re: [Techno-Chat]: Apple Sees The Light!

That, as they say, is life! I could use the same argument for the old original iOS connector, as I bought a keyboard and dock for those devices. Another example of “Caveat Emptor”, (Let The Buyer Beware). Technology moves on, as we all know. Again, you could argue that those who have PowerPC

Re: [Techno-Chat]: Apple Sees The Light!

I thought those adapters already came with the iPhone 7? Don't know of course as I never saw fit to upgrade to that model. I do take your point though, I bought a Philips pair of DAC headphones that plug directly into the Lightning port so I won't be using those on an Apple iPhone 8 should I

RE: [Techno-Chat]: Apple Sees The Light!

They will make them but the issue I see is that people have already gone out and bought lightning to 3.5 MM Jacks so they have wasted their money which is a shame. Debbie -Original Message- From: Joe Quinn [mailto:jdawg1...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, 3 June 2017 12:01 AM To:
