Sony MEX-BT5100 MP3 Player Bluetooth handsfree

The MEX-BT5100 is successor of Sony's MEX-BT5000 Bluetooth CD Player. MEX-BT5100 is about making your life simpler. No more searching for the ringing cell phone while you're driving down a busy street, or trying to talk on your phone while it's connected to the charger's too-short cord. Instead, when the phone rings, you just push a button on the stereo to answer it. The music mutes and the call comes over your car's front speakers. And your phone remains in your pocket, purse, or under the seat.

The MEX-BT5100 links to your Bluetooth mobile phone so you can make and receive calls without having to touch your phone. You'll see your phone book data on the bright, high-visibility screen, while Bluetooth allows the wireless transfer of up to 50 phone book contacts to the player. Six speed-dial entries allow you to access frequently dialed numbers quickly. You'll talk through a built-in microphone, so there's nothing extra to install.

Music streaming
Imagine being able to stream your music wirelessly from the audio player in your bag to the stereo in your dash. Upcoming music phones and players will take advantage of Bluetooth technology to ensure a world free of connecting cables, auxiliary inputs, and plugs. With the MEX-BT5100, you'll be primed to incorporate the latest gear and enjoy seamless connectivity with new music players. And the MEX-BT5100 offers playback control for essential features, like play and pause, over any wirelessly connected sources.

Handles almost any music file format
The MEX-BT5100 reads discs loaded with MP3, WMA, and ATRAC3plus music files and pumps up their sound with a built-in processor. An auxiliary input lets you add on your portable music player without adding an extra adapter. The MEX-BT5100 works with Sony's iPod adapter.
