Belkin today announced the TuneCast Auto, a new version of its device that lets you listen, power and charge your iPod in your car. The TuneCast Auto has an integrated FM transmitter (88.1MHz–107.9MHz) and carges your iPod through your car’s cigarette lighter outlet. It connects via the dock connector port, and features two programmable memory slots, a blue backlit LCD, a velcro tie and surface-mount clip. The TuneCast Auto is priced at $59.99 and will begin shipping in late November.
Belkin also today officially announced its TuneFM, which was first shown on iLounge in August. The $39.99 FM transmitter plugs into the headphone and remote jacks on the top of third- or fourth-generation iPods, and features a large LED display that shows the current FM frequency. It has channel up/down buttons and two programmable preset buttons for favorite frequencies. The company said it will also ship November.
