SmartShare
Score: 100%
Developer: Griffin Technology
Device Type: Audio


Function:

The Griffin Technology SmartShare is a headphone splitter for your PSP. What a brilliant little piece of technology. It simply allows two users to enjoy a movie or game on the same PSP (or any audio device, really) without sharing the same real estate with their heads.

Performance:

The SmartShare performs superbly, as is evidenced by the perfect score. Its perfection comes from not only its simplicity, but also for the little touch that adds that extra bit of oomph to the product. It comes with a volume control for each person, so that each listener can adjust the volume to however loud or soft they like. While it never completely mutes the volume, even on the lowest setting, it does lower it to the point that it is barely audible. On the loudest setting, it is quite adequate, while not blowing out the eardrums.

The unit itself will add an additional 7 inches to the space shared between users, but the freedom to simply relax and enjoy your PSP with someone else without having to hover over the system is immeasurable. The SmartShare comes is a slick black and grey plastic finish to match your PSP and is a must have for travelers attempting to watch a movie together using their PSP (or laptop DVD!) while on a plane or in a car.


Features:
  • Listen simultaneously with a friend sharing one PSP
  • Works with any standard headphone
  • Independent sliding volume control for each user
  • Shiny black and grey finish to match your PSP
  • Works with any audio device including MP3 players, DVD players, radio, etc.

Drawbacks & Problems::

Simply put, there are none. If you've ever had the need to share an audio device, go out and buy one of these. You won't regret it.
