DLO DEBUTS ALL-NEW, REDESIGNED TRANSPOD FOR IPOD
With a Sleek Shape and Enhanced Functionality, the New TransPod Cradles,
Charges and Plays iPod’s Music Through Any Car Stereo
CHARLESTON, SC — October 12, 2005. Digital Lifestyle Outfitters (DLO)
today announced the all-new, redesigned TransPod; the all-in-one car
solution for the iPod, iPod nano and iPod mini. The TransPod broadcasts the
iPod’s music to any FM radio frequency from 88.1 to 107.9 while
simultaneously charging and cradling the iPod in the car. Instead of a
separate transmitter, charger and cup holder cradle, the DLO TransPod
combines all of these features into one elegant device. New features
include an industrial design that accentuates the iPod, automatic
intelligent power management, controllable backlit display, programmable
preset stations and more. The new DLO TransPod comes in white, silver and
black — letting users choose to match their iPod or their car interior
colors perfectly. It costs just $99.99 and is available immediately at most
major electronics retail stores and online at http://www.dlo.com.
The all-new DLO TransPod features a smaller, sleeker design with a
beautiful curved form and easy-access controls. Its new intelligent power
control automatically turns the TransPod on when the iPod is docked and off
when the TransPod is not in use. It features front-based tuning buttons for
easy navigation of FM stations and side-based buttons that control
backlight and preset functions.
New DLO TransPod features include:
– Audio input to transmit the audio of any MP3 player or other audio device
like a portable DVD player or PSP gaming system
– Auxiliary output for use with car aux input ports or a cassette adapter
– iPod mini insert for perfect iPod mini fit
– iPod nano insert for secure nano fit
– Fit pads to accommodate various 3G and 4G size models of iPod
– Improved, now standard-black charger arm and screws for easy adjustment
“The DLO TransPod is one of the most important iPod accessories in the
world. Since DLO invented the TransPod three years ago, millions of people
have been able to enjoy their iPod’s music in their cars, trucks, vans,
even boats,” said Andrew Green, VP of Marketing for DLO. “The re-designed
TransPod takes the best sounding iPod Transmitter and makes it the best
looking iPod car solution too. With dozens of new features and
improvements, the DLO TransPod distances itself even further from its
competition — if it’s even fair to call them that.”
The new TransPod is a complete iPod solution for your car, yet it requires
no installation. This makes it a great alternative to expensive custom
installations. Its all-in-one functionality and superior audio performance
and sound quality also elevate the TransPod above separate, lower-end,
top-mounting FM transmitters. The TransPod works with any dockable iPod,
including the new iPod nano.

The DLO TransPod for iPod, iPod nano and iPod mini costs $99.99 and is
