The Absolute Best! [Posted on 2007-08-01] Def. well worth the money spent! I have never had one that works so well, even in interchanging vehicles. If you have had a problem with this transmitter then you're doing something wrong because it has worked everywhere, even in the city (Chicago)!
Very, very weak [Posted on 2007-08-05] One of my most disappointing product purchases of any kind. Flimsy design and requires placement almost right next to the car's FM antenna to even be audible over car stereo. Even then, mostly static.
Airplay boost [Posted on 2007-09-02] Not impressed with this particular transmitter. I have had earlier models for the larger Ipod that have worked much better. Reception can be a little hazy. However, RFI or other interference could be the culprit. The additional antenna should have increased distance and reception, but from testing it, I found that the maximum distance you can travel from the receiver is about the same as other XtremeMac devices.
Works [Posted on 2008-03-12] Don't really like the antenna on the side and the range isn't all that great but it does allow me to listen to my iPod Nano through any radio.
Just what I've been looking for. [Posted on 2008-03-24] I just got this a couple of days ago and it has been working great. The radio in my pickup doesn't have any problem picking up the signal from it and it plays my music loud and clear.
I tried one of those big blocky things that you plug into the cigarette lighter with the built in FM transmitter and clamps onto your iPod. It's suppose to charge your iPod and transmit to the radio at the same time. It charges my iPod OK but I only got the thing to transmit twice for less than a minute.3 in 1 Charging and Car Holder FM Transmitter for iPod, iPod 5G [Video] (30GB, 60GB) iPod Nano (1GB, 2GB, 4GB) iPod Photo (30GB, 40GB, 60GB) iPod Mini (4GB, 6GB) iPod 3G/4G (10-40GB, U2 Edition)
Now, with this neat little transmitter I can use it and the other thing to charge my iPod.
There is one little thing about it. It does run down the battery in the iPod after a little while. I set it to playing over the radio in my garage while I was working on a project the other day and it lasted for about 4 hours before the battery ran down.
When I first tested it with my home theater sound system set to FM radio it didn't want to work unless it was right next to the receiver and I was starting to get disappointed.Sony BRAVIA DAV-HDX265 Home Theater System But I think its more the Sony receivers fault than this little transmitter. Other radios that I tried it with, in my truck, the small one in my garage, my dads bigger boom box, it worked great with all of them.
So overall, I very happy with the performance, ease of use, price, and looks of this little doodad.
