Griffin iTrip Pocket review: Griffin iTrip Pocket

Griffin iTrip Pocket

The Griffin iTrip Pocket is cute and ultracompact, and its cap includes a hole for attaching to a keychain. It's easy to use, offers three presets, and outputs to the iPod's screen.

The iTrip Pocket suffers from weak FM transmission, which results in frequent static and dropouts in urban areas. It also doesn't include a car charger and has no pass-through for attaching a separate charger. It can only be used with the iPod.

The Griffin iTrip Pocket wins points for its supersmall and stylish design, but its weak FM transmission can't hold water in urban areas.

Bad

I was very excited when I first got it but now it's just sitting in the glove box, too frustrating to use, cant really listen to the music with such bad reception.

lightweight, small, easy to attach, wireless

a lot of interference, terrible sound

It's O.K. but I would consider a different type ne

The iTrips looks cool and is small and compact. However, it's hard to change the frequency on and has just OK sound quality. Overall, I think next time I'll get one of the power cords with a built in FM modulator.

Works very well

This is my second FM Transmitter and I love it. My first one was a bulky cradle that required a cigarette lighter for power. I take this one everywhere - It is so convenient.Make sure you read the included instructions on exactly how to set/change the...

Transmitter for Ipod

I've never beent this happy about anything since I got my Ipod first 20GB Ipod and then ordered a second one as a gift a few weeks later. This transmitter works great! In the house, the garage, the shop and my cars. It takes a small amount of battery...

On the "Nifty Scale": 5 stars

A bit pricey versus the alternatives and it is somewhat un-intuitive how to use it. To change the FM frequency you have to "import" a "play list" of FM frequencies from the included CDROM and then "play" the frequency as if it was a song track on your...

Not for Long Range

Works great when you're within a few feet of the radio antenna. My antenna is at the rear of the car, and my iPod has to be in the back seat for the broadcast to be static-free. It's great for using with hotel clock-radios, though. Just don't expect to...

Cool Device

I picked this iPod FM transmitter out of the many available options because of its small size and the fact that it doesn't need an external power supply (battery or cigarette lighter). I'm very pleased with it. It works great - especially since it fits...
