Using an FM Transmitter? Here is One You Might Like

"So, I'm sitting in traffic in my 2005 Mazda Tribute when a Porsche Boxster pulls up next to me, top down, tunes blasting. I had my own tunes playing, my iPhone was plugged into my FM transmitter which was straining to override the channel I had chosen for playback. The sound produced from my setup was swamped by the Boxster's sound system like a rowboat in a tsunami."
Problems with FM transmitters are a recurring theme, as the author was all to aware. So in his search for a better option he came across Tune Link. It's a two part system if you will, the cigarette lighter adapter available from Amazon.com for $89.99 [affiliate link] coupled with the iOS app from iTunes (which is free). New Potato Tech has more info on their website but this review is thorough and I think you will get more out of it than you would at the company's site. That is if you are at all interested in such a device.
