Pretty good reviews, I just ordered one. Luckily it doesn't cost much because a lot of time Deal Extreme takes a long time to ship anything to my house.

This item allows you to choose arbitrary frequency (other cheap ones give you only 2 freqs to chhose from). How to find unused frequencies for your area:[http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/vacant You can use this as a USB charger. Mine doesn't remember the last frequency, so its a hassle to use as a FM transmitter. There are two different versions of this. The new one is significantly cheaper, with poor detail display and other problem. If you order now, expect to get the cheaper one.

You know, I bought these two weeks ago when they were on sale too. I just got it in the mail yesterday and am quite surprised by it. It's worked surprisingly well and has less noise distortion than my fancier, more expensive one that just broke. I know some people said they had trouble with the remotes arriving DOA, but mine seems to work just fine. I am very happy with it, especially because it can play back through an SD card or USB flash drive as well as another mp3 player or CD player.
Only con I noticed was there isn't anyway to power it off other than by pulling it out of the outlet. Doesn't bother me that much, but it would keep a very tiny drain on the battery if you forget to pull it out.
It did take 14 days to get to me, but I expect that from Deal Extreme. Overall, I'm very happy with this little gadget, especially for the price
I have bough this couple of weeks back. Very happy with it. One question for people who are using it - Do you know how to forward within a song? The forward button forwards to next song. Some times you just want to skip a part of the song.

The forward button on your MP3 player should do it, when you press FORWARD button and hold it. Both of my creative and ipod do it this way.
But if you're using SD card on the device, errrrr.........

I am wondering what the sd card/slot would be useful for? if FM transmitter could play music off sd, why do you need mp3 player? and if that no mp3 is needed why wouldn't you just then rip tracks on to a cd?
anyone? just trying to understand what this is good for, or what it offers over already options?
update:This is a genuine question, not complaint or sarcasm. just hoping somebody could help.

I had also assumed holding the forward button should do the trick. It does not work for me while using SD card.
I'd like to order this (I think I understand correctly that it will play songs from an iPod and maybe FM radio?). I'd like to also use minispeakers with it. Is that possible--use iPod & speakers, all through the cigarette lighter? Is there any particular speaker(s) you would suggest on the DE site? Thanks from a music-gadget challenged FWer!

Wouldn't the outlet power be cut when you turn off the car?
I had bought two units at different times. Looks like the firmware had undergone changes in the second one. I did notice differences in menu functions and audio quality compared to the first unit.
