Apple clearly says on the webpage for the Radio Remote that using the FM Radio will affect your iPod's battery life. This makes sense. I have not been able to figure out, after looking at various different sites and forums, whether or not simply having the remote connected also affects your battery life.
Can anyone shed any light on this? Also, does anyone have any idea why (also, as Apple states) using the remote cancels out any volume increase you might have set for individual songs?
Thanks!

Yes, just having the remote connected affects the battery life?

I have no idea. I just felt like saying Yes. Hehe... sorry. Anyone here have a remote that they can tell us about?

i doubt it. the remote doesn't really do anything that the ipod doesn't already do (like RDS or just tuning in to a frequecy), it just moves the controls to a more convenient place on your body.
if it does do something it's so minute you'd never notice.

That's what would make sense. But no one has been able to tell me definitively.
I guess I'll just have to wait to get my iPod and remote and test it myself!
