@mrs george: I think you're up against the major limitation of that technology: when you're in a moving vehicle and the radio spectrum is crowded you will have trouble "locking on" to a particular frequency. This was the reason we abandoned the iTrip in the UK; a similar device we used in NZ was better at finding a clear frequency and holding on to it (fewer overlapping transmissions), but you still need to be prepared to change frequencies during a journey of any distance.

I have a ipod nano and would like to play it in my smart car, however I have tried many incar fm radio transmitters for the pod but I can not seem to keep it tuned to the ipod. It keeps jumping to the nearest radio station. Does anybody know how I prevent this.

the itrip FM transmitter is not so bad... its not as good as CD, but so far, when i find a good frequency in a neighborhood (germany), i really like the sound quality:-)

my 2 cents
