It works over FM station. I have one and it works pretty well if you can find a empty station. You put your music on a SD card or USB memory stick and stick it in. You can also play things with a headphone jack because there is a line in jack. I have a 4gb microSD SDHC in a SD adapter and it works fine. I essentially like the random play and leave it in that mode. Also this thing was better than any FM transmitter I previously had. It lets you select any station to broadcast to because you can go thru the full FM range to transmit.
Sound quality is ok for being a transmitter. If you get a clear station to broadcast to it sounds about FM stereo quality. Also I noticed that if you mp3's are high quality the sound is better. If they are lower quality the sound will be low and you will start to hear some hiss or static in the background.
Organizing music is not good. I haven't figured if you can choose folders. I just put everything in the root directory and just let it play. It is backlit so you can kinda see the music being played at nite. The display is pretty small though.
For 10 bucks you can't beat it. This deal has been at Anand Forums for awhile.
I got sent one of these by accident by Deal Extreme--had ordered a microSD reader but this mistakenly sent this exact product. Don't bother with it--this model has too much static noise no matter which FM station I tried. The USB port is only for charging. Concept is good but implementation and quality is not.

What do you mean by saying "The USB port is only for charging"? All the reviews on that website say it reads through USB.
Mine reads thru the USB and doesn't charge. He must have had a different model. The sound quality is just like any other FM transmitter. It seems to mute the highs and deepens the low. I have mine set to Normal EQ with the volume 8 out of 16. This seems to lessen the amount of distortion
I had this for a few months. Great value for $10, it sounds better than I had expected for $10.
One bad thing is that it doesn't shutoff so it's on all the time while power to the outlet is on and it gets a bit hot. It allows you to select ANY frequency which is great and it doesn't "bleed over" to other frequency as much as stuff I used in the past so you can listen to other FM station while this is on.
Remote battery runs out fast but I just got some CR2032 from eBay and it works (slightly thicker but you can force it in).
I bought this couple of weeks back. Its simple and works great!! But remote never really worked. Either came with dead battery !! or it just doesn't work.
You can buy an adapter that one end fits in the cigarette lighter and the other end gives you dual or even triple sockets to plug radar detector ,FM transmitter and GPS.

May be because of that reason, mine stopped working afetra trip to Montreal from DC
