My cars FM radio range is rubbish and a iTrip was no good but
these units have great reception (I suppose they probably have a
illegal output...)
Mmm, tempting. Not charging the iPod is a small prob though :-(
Well, once again eBay can source one for you - You shouldn't have to
pay more than $7 (delivered).
You can get a cheap 12v double adapter from DSE if you need two
outlets at once.
I like to let the battery be exhausted before charging it, not
constantly "slightly" charging your iPod
as can happen with some of the systems. Although you can have a few
extra cables, using
two units (transmitter and charger), you have a bit more flexiblilty...
It all works well in some cars (like a recent Commodore) as the 12v
outlet is in the centre
console...
