Editorial Review:
The iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Charger for iPod is a unique, and specially made for the people on the go. It wirelessly sends music from your iPod to your car radio so you can listen on your car stereo speakers. iTrip Auto combines Griffin's renowned FM transmitter technology with an integrated charger.
Designed specifically for use in the car, iTrip Auto's large, easy-to-read backlit LCD screen affords quick, precise station selection and easy status at a glance.
iTrip Auto connects to the dock connector of your iPod and optimizes the output volume. Speaker volume can be controlled solely from the car stereo controls; you won't have to touch your iPod to adjust the volume level.
iTrip Auto brings with it all the innovations of its iTrip lineage, including selectable stereo and mono modes for best-quality audio under real-world conditions, Griffin's RF technology that is not limited by line-of-sight, and Griffin's trademark world-class industrial design.

Best on the market This product is of course fairly cheep and the fact that it charges the Ipod too is great, I bought this product for my girlfriend after a previous one i bought her was shockingly bad and physically came apart after a few weeks, the ITrip auto however is well made, has a good FM signal (we have never had to change the frequency) and a good range (as I was following her car to the garage about 20 meters behind I was able to reasonably pick up what she was listening to from my car) in all a really great buy... more info
Dissapointing little number Having studied previous reviews of this and similar products, I decided to spend my money on the Grifin iTrip. What a waste of money this has turned out to be. Maybe I have a bad one but there is a constant high piched whine accompanying anything that is being played, the sound quality is punctuated with hiss, crackle and pop (new breakfast cereal) and despite using all of the provided pre set frequencies and a lot of my own, the problem does not go away. I can't blame the system in the car as it has always... more info
DO NOT BUY I bought this product from pc world and to date has broken 2 IPod nano's in the same way (yes you are thinking that I am a bit "special" to repeat this mistake again) but i would still advise against this product
Fantastic but one minor fault This is a fantastic piece of kit. i have used it over and over again in my car and have never had a problem with it. However i didnt realise that some ciggarette lighters are bigger than others and when i bought my new car the itrip struggled to saty in and produce a frequency. now one of my mates has to hold it while we are driving or when im alone i have to try and stick it to my dashboard to keep a signal. A minor setback but one that i can certainly live with as it charges your ipod while you drive.
