That was part of the new firmware update, seperating out the media device from the phone device.

I wish they would update to let you program in your own priority. I hate the GPS being first. Wish communicator was first.

Well the Sena can do that and always could. What I was surprised was the iPhone being able to bluetooth to more than one item.

I have heard good things about the new OiS 6.0, can't wait for that.

Welcome (finally) to the Sena club! I listen to podcasts a lot when I'm riding. I've got the Motorola Razr but, I just use it for phone and use my ipod for music and podcasts. The wife really loves it since she can listen to music now when we ride and talk to me if she wants.

Android phones can do that too. I haven't had a smartphone that couldn't. Earlier versions of Sena's firmware couldn't do it though. It was an all or nothing thing with connecting to the phone. It got confused when you connected the phone to the gps and then to the sena.

How bad does wind noise interfere with your ability to hear the speakers in these things? Can you wear earplugs while you use them and not give up too much audio quality?

I have can hear mine going 90mph and wear ear plugs, should work fine for you. LOL

This is when a good helmet makes a difference though.

I have a Shoei RF1000 (that I don't wear any more) and a Hornet (what I usually wear). The Hornet is quite a bit noisier than the RF1000.

The earplugs are what allow you to be able to hear the speakers. They dampen the wind noise. You probably would be deaf in a week if you listened without earplugs at full-volume! They are loud! There are certain songs I have that were recorded at a lower volume for some reason that can be a bit hard to hear but for the most part everything is great!
One really good thing about the Sena is each profile (phone, gps, music, intercomm) has its' own volume level. My phone is REALLY loud so, it gets turned down a bit and the volume stays where you set it and then when you go back to your music, it's at the volume you left it!
