Link: FMCup FM Transmitter & Charger for iPod (http://www.macbytes.com/link.php?sid=20060808145708)
Description:: Available in both black and white, the FMCup by Macally sells for $59.99, and delivers a very good quality listening experience, similar to other FM transmitters. As with all FM transmitters, the quality of the audio can vary depending on how much “bleed through” from other stations you may receive in your area. If you live outside a heavily populated city (as do I), odds are it will take a bit of experimenting to find the right frequency for you. The FMCup’s cup holder design and audio-in jack make it a more versatile solution than some other transmitters on the market, and the “Quick Switch” button makes it easy to change frequencies without having to take your eyes off the road.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10
Pros: Good sound, cup holder design fits almost any cup holder, much easier to switch between frequencies than other transmitters, additional audio-in jack for use with a wide range of devices, charges the iPod while playing
Cons: Must have an open cup holder handy, can be affected by cell phone interference
