Hi Eleanor Not at all, you charge it up and can plug it into the victor stream, I imagine it'll work on any device that doesn't have bluetooth as long as it has a 3.5 ml jack, it just plugs into the jack plug, the rest is nothing to do with computers. It charges from usb.

I was told by Humanware that the one you recommended works only with a PC. -----Original message----- From: Adrien Collins Sent: 15/11/2013, 10:21 am To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: bluetooth Hi Eleanor It wasn't humanware the company but one of their tech guys, he uses it himself, it is very good and easy to pair up. Good luck.

Looks like my one for twice the price will be going back to Humanware. I am interested that Humanware recommended this model to you Adrian when they are selling presumably the same for around �29 something or other.
