I have an FM Transmitter in my car that was specifically designed for my iPod but my wife who uses a different MP3 player complained that it was nuts having two FM transmitter adapters in the car. So when the Roadmaster Wireless MP3/WMA, FM Transmitter showed up to be reviewed I gave it to her, and said use that in the mini van.
Well she reports back that the device which plugs into a cigarette lighter works great, and that it allowed the kids to patch in their CD Player, her MP3 player and even the portable DVD player was able to be hooked up. Our Mini Van still has a built in VHS, and she had bought one of those portable DVD players that I patched into the system, but the audio never really worked that great. I was able to use the patch cord that is provided and patch it through the FM transmitter and it sounds much better.
Whats unusual about this player, and what makes it unique, is that you can take a standard USB memory stick loaded with Music, and this device will decode that data, and allow you to play it when it is plugged into the USB port on the transmitter, so you do not need a MP3 player, all you need is a USB stick with either MP3’s or WMA files loaded on it. This is beyond perfect for those of you that may have a USB stick but have seen no need to buy a MP3 player.
You can do random play, pause, increase volume, choose last song played and a host of innovative MP3 player type functions on the transmitter interface.
So far as innovation goes this product tops the list on MP3 FM Transmitters in its ability to play music on a standard USB memory stick and is the perfect item for those that do not have a regular MP3 player! The unit I reviewed retails for $34.99, they have four different models to choose from. My model was the VRFM8W check out the full line of products at [www.roadmasterusa.com]
