To weak - went back to wired2009-01-04
This transmitter was way too weak to perform adequately in my car. If not held within 2-3" on the radio or by the back window embedded antenna, the radio would not pick it up. I have gone back to a wired tape deck adapter. This device was a waste of money.
Really Good 4 the Price2008-08-16
This unit was better than most but could be better if Belkin would offer about three more frequencies. This unit does seem to connect to the station that is selected pretty good, even if it is a strong or week broadcast already on that station. Having a fresh strong new set of batteries in the unit helps to get better performance. The "Tunecast" also has low interference with good strong batteries. The audio cord coming from "TuneCast" for your mp3, or CD could stand to be a little bit longer but overall this was a good unit for the price.
not worth the money2008-04-09
I picked up the item on a special deal, figured it was worth a try. I've had two major problems. First, you can only select between 4 frequencies. It just so happens that all 4 frequencies were somewhat 'occupied' in my area. Second, even when travelling where there frequencies are open, the transmission power of this thing is near zero. It would not work in the car, and even on my home stereo I pretty much had to have the antenna touching the transmitter to get a clear signal. I would recommend spending a little more money on a griffin model (I've had success with iTrip) or a higher quality belkin model (just guessing on this one). Good luck!
Buy something else.2008-01-13
Pros: It's cheap. I got 3 of them for about $10 dollars somewhere.

Cons: A waste of my $10 dollars. Sound quality is fuzzy at best, even when it's sitting less than 5 feet away from the radio. Lot's of static if you even nudge the transmitter. Frequently *goes dead silent*; I have 3 units and they're all identical in this respect.

I hate to say "you get what you pay for" because you don't even get that much with this thing.

It is, however, a great gift to give to someone you don't like or want to irritate for a few hours. It's dead simple to set up and use, so when it doesn't work they'll start pulling out hair trying to figure out why until they realize that the unit just doesn't work as you'd think.
Bad Product2007-07-22
Brand new batteries, I had to sit with in two feet of the antenna. Then is worked fine. At any distance other than two feet it did not work at all. The signals coming in on 88.5 were practically non existent. For the folks that get this to work " more power to them " but really, this does not work. I gave it one star because I am not out that much money. I don't see how companies can put out stuff like this. Don't buy product. Thank you.

Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me? Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers. And the many specifications for resolution and speed can be misleading. As a rule of thumb, inkjet printers are a must for long-lasting photos, while laser printers are best to produce speedy text documents. User types: Home user | Budding novelist | Digital photographer | Entrepreneur | Corporate cog | Frequent flier Home user  The home user demands a lot from a printer. The device must tackle everything from a book report to a newsletter to the occasional snapshot--all without breaking the budget. This is why for most home users, the best choice is a versatile and affordable printer, such as a small-office/home-office color ...
Digital cameras are good for the environment
As we consider the digital camera revolution that has taken place over the last decade, most people think about it in terms of enhanced benefits for consumers. We can take a lot more pictures at much lower cost with digital cameras versus film cameras. We can also more easily manipulate and share those photos since they're all in the digital realm. But one thing many people don't think about actually deserves mention as potentially the most profound effect of the digital camera revolution: how digital cameras greatly reduce the destructive impact on the environment compared to film cameras. At first, you might think, "How can that be? My film camera didn't harm the environment!" Even though it wasn't your camera that harmed the environment, your film processing did indeed harm it. Any time you take your pictures to a photo processing center, that film is run through batches of chemicals. These chemicals are environmental hazards, and once they are used to process film, those chem ...
