Steve Gets His Classical Groove On

He's chillin' with Jam Master B from anywhere in his house, thanks to a Palm Pilot equipped with a radio frequency transmitter that allows him to operate his PC-based MP3 player remotely from up to 100 ft away. An RF receiver connected to the PC acquires Steve's selections from a database of 4,700 works. To keep sound quality high, Steve encoded the music with a high bit rate and connected the sound card to his stereo amplifier via a digital link.
