Kapten can also be paired with your Bluetooth compatible cell phone. After it's set up, you'll be able to call your contacts by pressing the CALL button on Kapten and stating the name of the person you wish to call. It also offers an MP3 player to download and play music and podcasts, plus an FM receiver (with voice recognition). The Basic model allows you to hear output on the included mini speaker.
