Any radio addon Kiaser?

[GoodFun]

I posted this earlier on the Kaiser General tread but go no replies:

Okay before anyone points out to me I am aware that HTC Kaiser does not have a FM tuner on board.

I have been looking at various attachment for Ipods which have FM radio capabilities.

For example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/GEAR4-BluEye-Bluetooth-Connection-Device/dp/B000JXGENK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1216741324&sr=8-2

There are plenty more types out there.

I am wondering if it would be possible to hook one of these devices using the mini USB port on the Kaiser and write a software which would use the FM radio tuner on these devices. I know these devices are custom built for Ipods but a low level code should in principle be able to access the hardware and use it.

Any thoughts?

Edited: Amazon link corrected

My first thought is

your link didn't work


Looking for something?
We're sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site.

Go to Amazon.co.uk's Home Page


My second thought is Just get a portable AM/FM radio.. If your going to carry around something to plug into your phone then you shouldn't care.

Well thanks for the prompt reply. Apologies for the link. Since I just cut n paste from my previous post, the link was shortened.

Correct link:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/GEAR4-BluEye-Bluetooth-Connection-Device/dp/B000JXGENK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1216741324&sr=8-2

As for buying a portable radio, I know it would be the easiest solution but if someone can programme to use the radio via the USB it would be a nicer solution.

I picked up one of these. But paid much less.

Motorola S705 SoundPilot (http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=152) works pretty good. Music sounds a tad bit better than average, but not near as good as the S9s or HT820s
