Pros: Allows use of iPod over factory car stereo, much better than CD changer for variety.
Cons: Difficulty tuning while driving, often fuzzy reception, slowly drains the iPod's battery.
Summary: ----- Why an iTrip? ----- Not long after I purchased my 20gb iPod I started searching for a way to use it while driving in my car. I couldn’t see a reason to fish around looking for CDs when I had all my favorite music loaded on my iPod. ... read more

Pros: Convenience, compact, good looks, good FM sound, works with 4th Gen
Cons: covers hold button, shuffle problem with stations still on iPod
Summary: This product seems to get many unwarranted negative reviews particularly about it's sound quality. I went ahead and purchased one along with my 4th Gen iPod anyway. I have to say that the sound quality is better than what I expected. It's not as good ... read more

Pros: Small sleek design. Allows for thousands more songs (depending on ipod) than CD changers.
Cons: Covers the hold button.
Summary: 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! ... read more

Pros: Designed for iPod
Relatively inexpensive
Works decently
Cons: FM Limitations
Summary: I just bought an iPod so that I could have something to listen to while I work. I spend 6-7 hours everyday on a refuse collection route, and music makes it a bit more enjoyable. However, the other place that I wanted to use it (as it stores my entire CD ... read more

Pros: relatively, none.
Cons: can't keep the frequency. over-the-air quality of the music is dreadful.
Summary: Howdy. I've had an iPod (2G - as in, "2nd Generation") for some time and wanted to play my iPod music in my vehicle. I don't have a solution. I tried Netalog's piece of junk adapter "TransPod" (wrote a review on this as well - save yourself and ... read more

Pros: Cool look, supports all iPods, Easy to use, No battery
Cons: Not the best sound, easy to lose, drains iPod battery
Summary: The iTrip is an accessory for the iPod. It came out just a few months ago along with the release of the mini iPod. The idea of the iTrip is fantastic. The iTrip FM transmitter for the iPod can play your music through any FM radio in your car, at a party, ... read more

Pros: Does what it's supposed to do
Cons: The technology is limited.
Summary: If you have a cassette deck in your car, you don't need the iTrip, just get one of those cassette adapters and you are all set. But if you don't have a cassette deck in your car, the iTrip does what it's supposed to do fairly well. In the majority of ... read more

Pros: Elegant companion to iPod, no extra batteries, easy to use.
Cons: Quality of sound is average. Not sure if there are negative long term health hazards.
Summary: Let me get this out of the way. Wonder why iTrip is under the Keyboard category. I would never have looked for it had I traversed my way through the category hierarchy. Search engine is really critical for navigating the Epinions site. Ok, lets focus ... read more

Pros: Convenient, very cool looking, Great sound if you can find a "free" station
Cons: Not reliable in metropolitan areas
Summary: WHAT IT DOES The iTrip was the first accessory that I purchased for my iPod. It sends the audio via FM signal from the iPod to any FM radio within a few feet. This is ideal to be used in the car so that you can listen to your iPod on the car ... read more

Pros: sleek design, authentic Mac look
Cons: bad frequency range, distorted quality and sound
Summary: I didn't look for anything spectacular to let my iPod music play in my vehicle, so I thought this iTrip would suffice. I spent $30 for it at Comp USA, and boy was I disappointed. From the get go, I seem to have trouble installing the iTrip on my iPod. ... read more

Pros: Style, small size, integration with iPod
Cons: Blocks the iPod hold button, audio quality variable.
Summary: I bought the iTrip as a companion for my new 40gb iPod. My hope was that this device would eliminate the need for a wired connection to my car and home stereos. In a perfect world, the iTrip would allow me to listen to my music collection in all my autos ... read more

Pros: Uses iPod internal power
Can tune all FM frequencies
No dangling cords
Cons: Changing frequencies not as simple as it could be.
Output power is a bit weak
Summary: I've had my iPod since May 2003 and I love the thing. I needed a way to play it in the car though. I tried cassette adapters and I hated wrestling with the extra cord. I tried the Belkin FM adapter which was decent, but could only send on 4 frequencies ... read more

Pros: Flexible station choice, no extra power required, nice design
Cons: Won't sound as good as an aux in or cassette adapter.
Summary: This is better than other similar device that I've tried, but still can be lacking. I tried the iRock first, which was very frustrating - only four stations to choose from and an odd design which makes it easy to accidentally turn off; meanwhile it's ... read more

Pros: Size, easy power source, potential for many convenient uses.
Cons: Weak signal, poor sound quality, and clumsy/problematic set-up and operation.
Summary: I love my iPod and figured, Wow, that iTrip thing sounds like a great product. I ordered one right when I bought my iPod and, after the manufacturer was so backlogged that they couldn't send me one in a months' time, I bought one on eBay. Big mistake. ... read more

Pros: Good concept
Cons: Doesn't work, poor frequency, switches frequency while songs shuffle, doesn't fit with iSkins.
Summary: I bought my iPod in October. The main place I listen to music is my car, and since I don't have a tape deck in it, I went the iTrip route. It took a little over a month to arrive (they evidentely aren't making them as quickly as people are ordering ... read more
