FM transmitter.

They vary a lot - some need to be almost within inches of your radio and have a very restricted number of frequencies, others will work several feet away and have a lot better choice of frequencies.

Do you need an iPod version or a non-iPod version?

The ipod one is called the itrip I think. do a search for that and you'll probably find others

Correctamondo. I don't need an iPod enabled thingamy. Want it for le voiture

That's true - I think I remember that now.

Sadly the iTrip is an iPod-compatible device.

Mic has a "cheapy one from the garage" which has been great (Pickers, Pheebs and Jinks listened to Radio Belmit for a good while after we left Chester)

My MP3 player is a Zen, Belmits is an Ipod so its obviously compatible with all different ones too

Oooh I likes the idea of a cheapy one

Will keep an eye out at my local garages. Also watching a couple on Ebay
