Dice Electronics – A History of iPod Integration

Dice Electronics don’t quite have a history comparable to Dension but they certainly dont’t have a history to hide away from.
Dice Electronics have been around for years speciailising in OEM vehicle integration. They have realised that vehicle technology is improving faster and faster, therefore, their business plan was set to develop the very best car integration products for products such as iPods.
Dice have been in the UK for a few years now after being introduced to the market here by iPodCarKitDirect.co.uk. When we first tested the products we knew that they were the only products that had the "claim" to be as good as Dension which actually were!
We receive iPod Car Kits and iPod related products to test literally every week, the majority of them are very poor. Some of the products we receive are simply average but priced to sell in a market that has an outstanding product range like Dension for similar prices. When we received our sample copies of the Dice Electronics products we were shocked. It was the first time in 7 years that a company had made an iPod kit that could compete with Dension (and was cheaper!).

The first Dice kit was their most basic kit. It was simply named "Dice iPod Car Kit". It provided control of the iPod from the stereo via playlist and artist/a;bum browser. The only downfall of this kit was that text couldnt be seen on many stereo’s. This made the control kind of hard for some people using the kit.
Dice then pushed forwards and released their second tier of kit. They called it the "Silverline". It was designed to work better with vehicles which could display text and track information. Models included kits for Honda, Toyota & BMW.
The next and latest thing on Dice’s product list is the Dice Silverline Pro kit. It works in the same way as the Silverline model but you can change the mode of operation from the iPod to the car stereo at the flick of a button. This makes it ideal for people who like to control the iPod still while connected into the car.

Dice are planning more new iPod integration products soon so watch this space!
