Cool MP3 gizmo

http://reviews.pimprig.com/audio_har...ransmitter.php

If you have a USB thumb drive, you can load it up with MP3's and plug it into this device. Then it plays the files and with a built-in FM modulator, you can hear it on your car stereo.

I know FM modulation leaves a lot to be desired, but if you travel a lot it might be kind of cool to bring with you and be able to listen to it in a rental car. If you already have a USB storage device, this could be a pretty good deal for only $59.

The biggest drawback I see is that there's no LCD screen.

I wasn't trying to say that this was better than any of your MP3 players. I was just saying that it's pretty cool for $59 and it uses storage you've probably already got.

Besides, nothing beats my 4TB array I keep in my trunk for MP3's. :P

I would give it thumbs down..

I would rather just get a decent portable player and spend half the money on a irock! headphone jack based fm modulator.

But the website.. two thumbs up... PimpRig? My type of site!
