Nice idea, but you might find listening to the AM radio a tad more enjoyable.

Simple design ; USB for MP3 drives

Poor performance ; Limited frequencies available

I've heard good reports about a few of the other FM transmitters such as the DLO Transpod, so there are solutions out there. Unfortuntely, when it comes to the i-rocks -- i-don't think so.

I have had mine for 2 years and use the USB port to play music at acceptably good quality. Yes it gets washed out if there is a strong local station at the same frequency. Use the extension antenna to get better sound.

Simply load up a USB with music and go ; Remembers last song

A wider range of channels would be useful, but great in the country

Out of the 3 I have tried, this is most definately the best. The sound quality is great, the volume transmitted is great. No scratchiness or fading in and out. If there is a better one out there that uses a key or cardreader and NO Ipod, let me...

Good sound transmission ; No batteries required ; No MP3 required ; Attractive looking in white

Its a bit large when you are also using a key or a cardreader

"Worked well for me for about a year"

 

Never used the iPod transmitter myself so maybe it is a problem but CNet should have tried the USB option. It worked perfectly for me for 1 year then the transmitter failed. Distortion of the audio only ever occurred when the mp3 file has been...

Easy to use ; Remembers last track, even when unplugged from car ; Any USB key can be used ; Transmission quality good (in QLD at least)

Life span of product only 12 months, transmitter failed ; Limited number of frequencies available ; Occassionally didn't like some mp3 files on USB key ; USB key files can only be in the root with no other file types otherwise will not play

"Poor transmitter and USB flash drive not reliable"

 

Not a bad idea but typically USA approach to claims and performance. Strong recomendation not to buy.

Looks neat and simple to use ; Remembers where it was and the frequency (unlike the Belkin that goes back to home when the power is switch off and is prone to switching itself off!)

Poor transmission quality ; The four default frequencies are packed out by other transmitters ; The USB drive works for the first ten or so songs and then latter songs drop out with distortion and the unit continues on to the next song and gets worst...
