| Totally worth the $3 i paid for it used (even though it took the seller like 2 1/2 weeks to send it). I was debating between this or a cassette adapter. I'm glad i went with this. It has better sound then most cassette adapters I've used in the past. One tip though. Don't turn your I-pod volume all the way up when you use it. Or else it will sound horrible. Best bet is to go with 50%-75% of the way up on the ipod to get the best sound in your car stereo. Also this will drain your battery faster so be sure to use a charger on your i-pod when using this :). |

| I have owned a Griffin iTrip Mini for about 5 years, and most of the time it worked fine. The only thing is that since it is an FM Transmitter, sometimes there is interference when the signal is weak. Also, my previous iTrip broke down after almost 4 years of use (the metal mini jack broke), and that's the reason why I had to replace it. Luckily, it was only $4.99 at Amazon. |

 "Poor quality" | 2008-08-14 |

| The only way to play your iPod in your car and have decent sound is to have it hooked directly to the stereo. FM transmitters in general are poor. I tried this one, and learned this myself. As you are driving the quality is constantly changing as the signal changes - terrible. |

 "Good FM Reception on Car and House Radios" | 2008-07-05 |
| - Reviewed By breiel |
The Griffin iTrip Mini FM Transmitter for Apple iPod 4 GB mini M9434LL/A (Green) works well on both my car and house radios. Of course, this depends on the quality of your radio and location to transmit the signal. Reception is excellent throughout my house and yard, especially if you have a sensitive radio (mine is a Kaito KA1102 - Worldband radio.). FM reception in the car depends on making certain you are driving in an unobstructed area (this is the case even with public FM stations).
PROS:
* What I like about the unit is that it attaches conveniently to the iPod and looks like an integral part of the iPod.
* It covers the full FM band, although adjusting it while driving is impractical.
CONS:
* The greatest fault I find with this unit is that it drains the iPod battery within about 3 hours of air play.
* It cost me a bomb (over $40) when I first purchased it, but I see now a used one is substantially less and won't set you back.
Otherwise, the Griffin iTrip Mini FM Transmitter is a nice addition to those who own an iPod mini. |

| I bought this product when it first came out and it worked but never had a clear sound. There was always static on every available station and always had to be touching it. Currently, I have not used it in months because it won't pick up ANY station at all. Very disappointed. I am in the process of purchasing a different product. |

| I was really excited when I heard about this product, but once I got it the excitement faded. The sound quality is poor. At times all I can hear is a lot of static and I have to move the IPod around in order to get better reception. |

I loved my iTrip. Then it broke. The little part that sticks in to my ipod broke off while floating around in my purse somewhere. I really should have been more careful. But silly me I thought it would be well made. What is these days?
Sometimes the iTrip will cut off out of no where but I forgave it because having my ipod take over every radio I came near was priceless. I really need to get another one. I miss it :( |

The quality of material is pretty good and is in sync with the shape of the ipod. The only problem with the fm transmitters are that the quality of the songs goes down pretty bad. You are better off using a aux wire which I did. I still use the fm transmitter to play it over my music system.
If you decide to buy this, please set the frequency to something other than the default one as every person has it set to 87.9. Or else half the time you might end up listening to somebody else's music rather than yours! |

| Okay, first off, I loved this product! It worked, for the most part, flawlessly and I was able to enjoy my ipod everywhere. However, after about 6 months of enjoyment, it broke! So I bought another one and a few months later, it broke too! I tried using the support page online and that didn't work either. So now I am sad because I can no longer utilize my ipod to its fullest extent. I have thought about buying another one because it is one of the cheapest transmitters out there, but I hesitate because they just don't last. |
