Pros: Small sleek design. Allows for thousands more songs (depending on ipod) than CD changers.
Cons: Covers the hold button.
The Bottom Line: A solution to listening to your ipod in the car...no wires, no mess...just music.

| jenukaku's Full Review: Griffin Technology ITRIP FM TRANSMITTER FOR NEW (4... |
I love the itrip! I read most of the reviews before I purchased it and a lot of them were more on the negative side but I was dying to listen to my ipod in the car so I decided to spend the $30 on it and take my chances with it. So far it's worked great!
I live in Atlanta and I can't think of an area that would have to many more FM stations unavailable than around here. So far I haven't even had to change the station to anything other than the preset station of 87.7 FM. I haven't ventured to far outside of Atlanta with it yet (no major road trips) so I can't speak on the capability of it as you move in and out of metropolitan areas.
The itrip is a small attachment that goes on the top of the ipod in the earphone jack and it transmits the music from your ipod to any FM radio without the use of wires or cords. The itrip does cover up the hold button but that doesn't seem to create to many problems. I just set my playlist to play before I drive so there is really no need to touch it at all while driving.
The sound quality is not as good as the quality you get when you listen to the ipod directly with headphones but that's expected because you are transmitting it to an FM station. It's just as good, if not better, than listening to a regular radio station.
