Griffin iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for iPod (Black)

I was done trying these kind of products because my radio picks up a lot of static. The radio is great and can reach far when it comes to radio stations. However, I thought I could give it one more try and voila! This is the BEST product out there. I went to big cities and in the country and my iPod never gets interfared with statics or radio statios. It feels like it creates a capsule on its own to play my iPod. You won't be dissapointed.

This worked well when I was in cars that did not have an Ipod connection. It is, however, frustrating to use in areas where there are a lot of radio stations (e.g., NYC). Also, when traveling from city to city, the available frequencies change quite a bit, so you have to change the settings. That being said, this was a great way to listen to my Ipod until I got a car with an Ipod connection.

this product works...
be aware, though, of the location of ur vehicle's radio antenna...
my honda pilot antenna is in the rear side window -- about as far from the radio as u can get...
as a result, the limited transmission power of this product struggles to deliver a static free signal...
if the antenna is closer to the front of the vehicle, u'll love this product...

Let me say that generally, this product works great for the features that work.

Pros:

Ease of use (very easy to find a clear station and select it)
Strength of signal

Cons:

Doesn't actually charge newer iPods/iPhones
Sometimes will just freak out and send shrieks of alien laser beam noise
Body is made of very flimsy weak plastic that can cause the electronic components to get shaken up easily.

I read Eric William's review and printed his instructions for relatively easy setup. As a result, I get great reception and sound. I store the adapter in my car's ashtray, with the cigarette lighter removed. I'm stuck with a cord to the iPod but it's a cheap solution!
