DLO TransPod/TransDock FM 2005 (for Dock Connector iPods)

This review was originally published in the iLounge Holiday Buyers’ Guide 2005-2006. Please download the Buyers’ Guide for additional photographs. (Please note: this is an update to a review of the previous versions of TransPod, which we’ve reviewed elsewhere on the site.)
If you want to add integrated FM transmission to charging, mounting and a line-out port, TransPod’s a solid option. Using two adjustable plastic pipes, it mounts in your car’s power charger port, then gets tweaked to a hopefully steady position. Good FM, strong line-out and simple tuning make it convenient; but buy locally just in case it’s not right for your car; extra add-on mounts have disappeared from this version’s package.
A Note From the Editors of iLounge: Though all products and services reviewed by iLounge are "final," many companies now make changes to their offerings after publication of our reviews, which may or may not be reflected above. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.
