Hi folks, does anyone, or has anyone know or added speakers to their pda to listen to dvd's through rather than the pda's own speaker, as the sound through this is dreadful. I have thought about headphones but would like spaekers to listen to in the car. Any suggstions and I'd love to hear them. :D

This is what I did, when my dad gave me his car to go to college..

There are two ways to do it..

(a) Get a casette to CD-player adapter. Then just plug-in the output cable to your PDA's headphone jack. You are done. They generally cost <$10

(b) See if your car's stereo supports audio out. If yes, you're lucky. Most of the SONY's stereo system have audio out. Just get a audio in-out cable and plug it in to the car's audio output and other one into your PDA

Hope that helps

Sunny :D

Well, audio in is there in every stereo. I had a SONY stereo and it came with audio out too.

Once, I parked the car outside my college and a theif took it away.
Then, I bought a mp3/WMA stereo for my car made by JMC and it doesnt have audio out. But, it can play CDs :D . It costed me only $80 !!
