Other features include SmartSound technology to automatically adjust signal strength for each frequency, Griffin’s SmartScan technology that automatically finds the clearest available frequency, a backlit LCD display, up to 3 station presets, a micro-USB port for charging any USB-powered iPod or iPhone via a compatible charger, track controls for controlling playback from the iTrip’s display, and RDS support for displaying artist and track information on RDS-enabled radios. Griffin’s new iTrip FM Transmitter with App Support offers support for all iPod classic and iPod touch models, the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS, and the third-, fourth-, and fifth-generation iPod nano and is available now for $50; the iTrip Controller application is available as a free download from the App Store.

Has anyone had the opportunity to try this smart product idea? While I like this company a lot, and think their products are very solid, I had really bad luck with their weak FM transmitters compared to other companies.
