Has worked well for me, but has it's flaws [Posted on 2007-12-01]
I've owned this for over two years now and it continues to serve me well. The reason I prefer the airplay2 over the i-trip is because it allows me to charge it in the car while in use and also detaches from the charger so I can use it on my radio at home. That is really the advantage to this transmitter over others. I found that the signal strength is quite good, and haven't had much trouble finding open stations in several major cities I've used it in. The main problem, and the reason I would recommend getting the upgrade version (called the airplay boost) is because it doesn't lock in to the bottom of my ipod. It is always coming undone in the car and I basically have to hold it in while I switch tracks, or find a new album or whatever. It is really very annoying. I'd definitely go for the boost if you want a good quality transmitter that can function with or without a charger.
Does what it's supposed to [Posted on 2008-01-03]
Does what it's suppose to do as written above.
I have never had problems with it staying connected to the iPod or be received by my radio.
Has lasted about 2 years.
PS-works with my iPod touch really well.
Just what I expected [Posted on 2008-06-12]
Nice product, well packaged for shipping. Works great in the home, but not so good in the car, but I knew that before I bought it. Fast shipping.
It definitely gets teh job done [Posted on 2008-07-08]
The Airplay has been one of my best ipod accessory purchases. I haven't had problems with reception or static that I read about in other reviews. I had to hold the AirPlay close to the radio for it to pick up initially, but after that it played fine from my cup holder until I was able to mount it on the dashboard. It does zap power, but that's easily fixed since there is room at the bottom of the Airplay dock to allow a car charger. If the preprogrammed stations aren't music free, it could be confusing to change, but mine came with instructions. It is important to note, I can't comment on what it will do on long drives; I haven't been over 100 miles with it. Good luck.
It Gets the job done, But...no one mentions this... [Posted on 2008-07-19]
I needed something to use at work because I was tired of buying AAA batteries for the Belkin transmitter gadget.
The reviews say minimal battery drainage. Without using a charging device my ipod classic lasted about 7 hours.
Charging devices are cheap so I'll need to buy one.
Otherwise, the XtremeMac Airplay2 works great for me.
