I bought this on 28 February and I’ve had to repair it three times since. It is now 28 May and the thing is beyond capable repair. $34 down the drain! I should have gone with the less expensive ones offered from other manufacturers. The seller was great, but the product is horrible.

This was as close as I could come to a dock that would hold the iPhone in my field of view while driving (by strapping it to an old dash mount and using an extension cord). It is only a holder with two plugs and a transmitter. The bottom plug only charges and a headphone type plug carries the i tunes and phone output to the FM transmitter. That part works but is cumbersome to attach and detach when taking the phone in and out. What is really annoying is the FM interference when I listen to a somewhat weak station. The interference comes and goes depending on the local station signal strength. If I turn it off with a switch I installed in line (the device has no off switch) the interference goes away and so does the charging feature. It also does not stop iTunes playback when the power goes off, and sometimes you have to unplug and replug the top patch cable for the FM transmitter to restart. I would wait till Kensington or Griffin comes out with the real deal.

This is one of the few products that charges your iPhone 3G while you listen to your iPod through FM streaming. The transmission quality is pretty good; Griffin has better quality of transmission though. The phone does get charged and there are no compatibility issues associated with that. The flexible neck, however, could be made much stronger. It easily slacks and the entire cradle can turn sometimes if you make slightly sharp turns. I worked around by purchasing a power splitter for my car and wedging that in between the passenger seat and the gear shifters. Duck taping the car mount system’s power cord to the power splitter made a much firmer contact.
The phone quality is pretty decent; there has been one occurrence where a lot of static interfered with my call but I’m not sure if it’s just a one-off thing.
Overall; I’d recommend buying this as it does its job well enough.

I was looking forwad to have this device, when it arrived installed and test at least in two different cars and same result. Blue light ok, but the LCD screen and charge and FM function notworking at all.
bad idea buy this product.

I saw all the good reviews on this product but when I tried it myself, I can’t say I agree. The whole thing is made from plastic which I feel I am going to snap something on it. The idea is a good one but I can barely hear callers in my speakers even with the stereo cranked. I frequently have issues with the product coming loose and falling over on turns. I have stopped using the product because of this. I also can’t get my phone to charge properly with this, my phone reports a charged battery when it isn’t. But this could be a issue with my phone so I am not going to say its a con for this product. I would not buy this product again or recommend it to anyone.
