 Great while it lasted October 27, 2008
I have owned this product for approximately a year and a half. I got it for free from my brother who works for Goodwill Computers. He had previously given me several other ipod fm transmitters that had worked terribly, and I was thrilled when I got this one that not only worked well, but charged my ipod and did not require batteries. I used this charger in many cities throughout Texas and took it on several road trips to New Mexico, Louisiana and one all the way to Mexico City and back and the whole time it worked great with minimal static on occasion. Last week I lent it to a friend for a weekend trip and I believe it may have been yanked around because now it does not seem to have a stable connection with the ipod and isn't picking up channels well. I got online and was shocked to discover that this adapter costs $85 new and while I was pleased with the performance of the product, I have yet to decide if it is worth that much for a year and a half of use.
 Not compatible with iPod Touch 2nd Gen October 23, 2008
Followed directions for using the cable. Upon connecting it to my iPod Touch 2nd Gen, the iPod displayed a message that the unit could not be charged. I called Monster and they said Apple revised the interface and I needed to purchase the Monster iCarPlay Wireless 250 instead if I wanted my iPod to charge using the FM transmitter. Will now be going to get this other unit.
GREAT for music, SO-SO for Podcast with Talking Only July 14, 2008
This is a great product overall. Music sounds really good and it's awesome to be able to charge the ipod at the same time. I've been listening to some podcasts of people just talking and the static is much more noticeable. It's a bit distracting at first, but you get used to it. I would recommend this product. Signal becomes somewhat weaker (more static) near bridges, overpasses and tunnels obviously.
 Monster iCarPlay June 10, 2008
Great product, this is the 2nd one I purchased since my daughter liked the 1st one I have and wanted one. It is slightly different than the first one(mine) since mine has only 3 stations to tune into on the FM signals. The 2nd one(hers) has 10 stations to tune into which gives it more range if 88.1, 98.1, or 107.9 are taken. Around town these are great, out on the highway you may get some interference, but that goes away as you change the frequency to one of the other setting. Highly recommend this product!

Considerably overpriced and less than adequate. Sorry guys, this one is a looser. How about a refund?
