Product Description
WORKS WITH ALL IPODS PATENTED ALL-IN-1 CAR SOLUTION BLUE BACKLIGHT WITH 2-MIN AUTO/OFF & 4 PROGRAMMABLE PRESETS BLACK
Amazon.com Product Description
The DLO TransPod is the ultimate iPod car accessory. The TransPod plays music from your iPod over your car stereo, it charges your iPod, and it mounts iPod wherever you want it--and it works perfectly with the new video iPod and iPod nano. The TransPod broadcasts the iPod's music to any FM radio frequency from 88.1 to 107.9 while simultaneously charging and cradling the iPod in the car. Instead of spending a small fortune on a separate transmitter, charger and cup holder cradle, the DLO TransPod combines all of these features into one elegant, cost-effective device. This model comes in black, but it's also available in silver and white.

The all-new DLO TransPod features a smaller, sleeker design with a beautiful curved form and easy-access controls. Its new intelligent power control automatically turns the TransPod on when the iPod is docked and off when the TransPod is not in use. It features front-based tuning buttons for easy navigation of FM stations and side-based buttons that control backlight and preset functions. Features:

  • Play, charge and cradle your iPod with one simple, secure device
  • Fits ALL dockable iPods - including new 5G video iPod and iPod nano
  • Transmits iPod's music to your existing radio already in your car
  • Uses any available FM frequency from 88.1 to 107.9
  • Charges iPod's battery while in use
  • No install necessary - simply plugs into any available Auto Power Outlet
  • Available in White, Silver and Black
  • 4 assignable Presets let you jump to commonly used frequencies
  • TransPod Input lets you connect and transmit ANY other MP3 player or game system
  • iPod Line Level Output available for car based Auxiliary Inputs or Cassette Adapter

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best solution for using your iPod in the car, December 13, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: DLO TransPod All-in-One Car Solution for iPod (Black) (Electronics)
I wasn't expecting a great solution when I purchased this item. I have tried similar products by other manufacturers and was disappointed. However, the Transpod gave me the sound I was looking for in an easy to install and use package.

Interestingly, I bought a direct connect via tape player type unit as well which is theoretically suppossed to deliver better sound quality. However, I found this was not the case at all. The Transpod does a much better job.

My unit also came with an extension bar so it could be mounted higher. This gets it up away from the ashtray. However, the criticisms about getting it to a place where it is safe to operate while driving is a real issue. It's not a big deal for me because I could make changes at lights or before I set out to drive somewhere. For others this may be a more serious problem, but really it isn't a bigger deal than fumbling with a cell phone while driving.

In order for this product to work...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars The Best of the Bunch, July 12, 2006

Frank White (Sunnyvale, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: DLO TransPod All-in-One Car Solution for iPod (Black) (Electronics)
I forked over the not insubstantial sum of money for the Transpod with intense skepticism. Having purchased, and been extremely disappointed by, two other iPod FM transmitters (Griffin iTrip & XtremeMac AirPlay), I was not expecting much from DLO. However, based on the recommendation of cNet and other generally good reviews on the web, I decided to take a chance.

Two weeks in and I haven't been disappointed. The Transpod seems to have a much stronger signal than my prior transmitters and I rarely hear any static or have trouble finding a strong frequency. Since finding the best frequency for my area (88.9 in Washington, DC), I have never had to change the setting. And the cradle is quite convenient for operating the iPod and is quite stable. (Some of this will depend on the location of your power jack, however).

Obviously, as with all FM transmitters, the sound quality is less than what you would expect from a casette adapter or, even better, direct...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars You will NOT REGRET buying this product, November 2, 2006
This review is from: DLO TransPod All-in-One Car Solution for iPod (Black) (Electronics)
Do not believe what anybody tells you about FM Transmitters (except me of course). This product works like a charm. You might hear people say that FM Transmitters don't work or that the sound quality is horrible, don't listen. It works great on the first channel (at least in central Jersey). The sound quality is fine and it is incredibly easy to use. It really fits in any car too. In my car I have a unique situation. The ciggaret lighter is jammed in a small corner right next to the gearshift. I thought there was no chance on earth that it would fit. I couln't have been more wrong. The extendable arm really dose the trick. It fits fine and doesn't even go near the gearshift. So don't worry about this product not fitting in your car, which is another thing people might tell you. This really is the perfect solution for listening to your iPod in the car. Put all of your worries aside and get it.
