PC Advisor: Sony is launching an in-car CD tuner and MP3 player. The Sony MEX-BT3600U is designed to be a neater way of pumping music from iPod or Walkman MP3 player to car stereo speakers.
Unlike other in-car MP3 player hookups which generally involve tuning in to an available FM channel, the Sony MEX-BT3600U is essentially a car stereo and CD player with a USB port to which the portable player then attaches.
The point of both FM tuner-type devices and gadgets such as this Sony in-car player is that you can enjoy your music collection without having to lug your CD collection with you.
Sony has given its in-car player a straightforward navigation menu too: a ‘Quick-BrowZer’ lets users search and select tracks stored on their MP3 player. Track and album details are shown on the tuner’s 13-segment LCD display.
