Cy-fi wireless iPod speaker works on bikes

by Peter Cohen, Playlist Magazine

The Cy-Fi is a new wireless bicycle speaker for the iPod. It’s being introduced at this week’s Interbike 2007 Expo in Las Vegas and is expected to go on sale early in 2008 for $149.95.

The Cy-fi includes a wireless speaker that connects to the bicycle’s frame. It’s slightly larger than a deck of cards, according to the manufacturer, and weighs less than three ounces. A transmitter connects to the 30-pin dock connector on the bottom of the iPod.

The Cy-fi features remote control abilities; you can change track, volume and playlists from your speaker, and each battery charge lasts about six hours. Its wireless range is about 30 feet, and you can “group sync” up to four speakers, if you’d like.
