- I love this product overall. But can only give 4 stars because of some minor issues. PROS: - Instant FM transmission upon turning ON - Very strong signal that sounds great but the highs (treble sounds) are bit dampened - full function remote that lets you navigate the menus, fast-forward, rewind, skip, shuffle songs, etc. - lets you charge cell phone or other device via the USB port - Holds your iPod in place nicely - Has ability to connect to audio sources other than iPod - although without remote functionality CONS: - May not fit outlets that are recessed - doesn't fit my wife's car - an extension arm would have taken care of it - The plug is held together with a tiny screw and nut that can come lose easily. However, if you leave it plugged in all the time, you should be OK. You can remove your iPod from the unit while it's plugged in. - The remote died after just a few weeks of use. I'm assuming the remote came with a bad battery. I will post my experiences (if notable) after replacing the battery. BOTTOMLINE: I have used a few other FM transmitters and this BY FAR has the best performance and features. The PROs greatly outweigh the CONs. I would say if it fits your car and you leave it plugged in all the time or are careful with the screw assembly, this is a must buy. Enjoy and keep your eyes on the road while driving.
-- I bought this for my brother-in-law who just turned 16. Unlike other FM transmitters this product has the added bonus of functioning as a stand for the iPod and it also has a remote control so it's safer than having to fumble around with the iPod itself. The charger function is also helpful especially if you have a phone such as a Razr that charges on a USB dock. There are many devices like this on the market, but I like this one the best because it has a remote and it looks cool. I have bought two more of these as Christmas gifts and I plan to buy more.
