Media5 Fone: Connect to ACCESS and BRIC-Link from your iPhone

For all of you iPhone users who have been suffering from "ARC Envy", you'll be happy to know that we've tested and approved a very cool app that will let you connect to your ACCESS or BRIC-Link codec with your Apple iPhone or iPod iTouch. It also works with the iPad but, personally, we think you'd look silly holding that thing up to your ear.

Media5 Fone is available from the iPhone App Store as a free demo download that will allow for calls of one minute in duration.  If you'd like the unlimited call feature, you'll need to pay $4.99 USD for that luxury.

All of the details, including simple setup instructions for your ACCESS or BRIC-Link, are available at: http://comrex.com/arc/media5.html

World Cup: Eyes of the world are on South Africa

As the attention of the world focuses on the Republic of South Africa, so does that of radio and television stations from around the globe.  Several Comrex customers have contacted us to let us know about the all of the World Cup excitement.  We just received these photos from Comrex customer Radio Bio Bio in Chile.  Pictured above is ESPN Radio Bio Bio Desportes commentator and former Chilean football star Patricio "Pato" Yáñez reporting from Nelspruit where Chile and Honduras will meet this week for their first round Group H match.

Below, Pato talks with ESPN Radio Bio Bio Deportes commentator Miguel Cajas Pino about the upcoming matches and what fans can expect from the Chilean national team.

If you're broadcasting from South Africa on Comrex gear and have photos you'd like to share, please send them to info@comrex.com
