Excellent interface. Charges iPod while engaged. Easy to use while driving, but not recommended for safety.
Expensive. SmartScan only mildly helpful in crowded FM markets.
The iTrip Auto SmartScan has an excellent interface and is very well designed in every respect. Even though it is not optimized for iPhone use, it worked fine with the original iPhone, but doesn't seem to work with the iPhone 3G. We tested it with one...

The Griffin iTrip Auto SmartScan is an attractive FM transmitter and battery charger for the iPod that can make short work of finding a suitable station for in-car broadcasting.
The mirrored surface on the Griffin iTrip Autos display is distracting and nearly illegible during daylight. The iTrips long cable may be too messy for neat freaks. As the name implies, the iTrip Auto can be used only in your car.
The Griffin iTrip Auto can only bring distraction and eye strain. Last years more useable model can be found for half the price. Price range: $59.99 - $89.99
