This product was shipped quickly and well packaged. There was not much in the way for instructions included (a few paragraphs on the packaging), but there really isn't much to say. Plug it in, select a station to transmit, and you're done.

This charges my G2 phone effortlessly while playing music, navigating or even someone playing something graphically intense like Angry Birds (in the passenger seat, of course!) Music is transmitted well overall, though I'm getting some weird electrical feedback from my car. It's this high-pitched drone that fluctuates up and down in pitch with the tachometer. I don't know if it's the device's fault, or my car's.

As for the device's faults, a volume control of some sort would have been nice on it. As it stands right now, I have to crank up my stereo pretty loud to get decent volumes on transmission. This is only a problem when I forget to turn the volume back down when switching to a CD or the radio. Aside from that, works as advertised with no problems at all.

Like all radio transmitters, putting your device (in this case, my phone) at 100% volume really bungles up the transmitted audio, but even at 75% sometimes the S sound comes off as caustic static. That's just the nature of these transmitters though, so I can't fault them, just a warning to potential customers.

Overall, a great device. I'm glad I invested in it.
