Thanko FMP3 Watch Transmits From Wrist to Radio
Thanko, that provider of all things gimmicky but good, has just launched another surprisingly useful tool, this time the FMP3 Watch. As the name suggests, we're talking combo MP3 (and WMA too) player and FM transmitter.

Belkin Site Makes FM Transmitters Slightly Cooler
I hate FM transmitters for iPods, but I think Belkin's new service might make me hate them a little bit less. The company today launched a website that tells you what FM stations are the cleanest (i.e. least active) in your area. I'd like to see this combined with Google Maps, so that I'd know when and where to switch channels along an 800-mile road trip. More »

Kensington QuickSeek FM Transmitter
Kensington just announced their newest iPod accessory: the Quickseek FM Transmitter. It's like a Belkin with autoscan. Instead of searching through stations until a clear channel is found, the Quickseek automatically scans for open airwaves, freeing your attention for more important things (like talking on your cell, running over deer, and if you're lucky, crashing into a truckload of manure and then shouting, "McFly!").

Best iPod Accessory Ever: Combination Breathalyzer, FM Transmitter
I've been writing about iPod accessories since the beginning of time, and this is no doubt the best one I've ever seen. Call me an alcoholic, but having a breathalyzer is pretty damn important. A breathalyzer is the perfect device to determine how ugly of a girl you can take home that night and still be considered okay—oh and it can determine the legal limit for driving, too. More »

Nyko FM Trans Kit for Nano: Ho Hum
Here is Nyko's latest iPod accessory. It is an average FM transmitter for the iPod nano. Probably the best feature is the variety of mounting options that comes with the kit. It can be mounted with an adhesive clip, air-vent clip or sun-visor clip. It also includes a cigarette lighter plug that can charge the nano when the battery is low. There are only five channels to choose from for FM transmitting, which may be a concern in highly crowded airwaves. It will be available for $39.99 which isn't that bad given that it is an FM transmitter and charger. More »

Belkin'sNew TuneFM and TuneBase FM
Belkin recently released some information about new FM transmitters for the iPod and iPod nano that they'll be launching at CES next year. The new TuneFM (different from that other Belkin TuneFM) and TuneBase FM make use of the new iPod's dock connector — they're both about the same, except the TuneBase FM is built specifically for in-car use (it has an adjustable steel neck, and connects directly to the cigarette light adapter). Both use the LCD display on the iPod to show the FM frequency being tuned to. The TuneFM is priced at $49.99 each while the TuneBase FM will go for $79.99 each. More »

Wireless PSP Headphones
So what the is the deal this week with PSP and headphones/sets. This is the Summit PSP wireless headset (actually just headphones). Summit is using a workaround way to get the wireless headphones functional by using FM transmission. A device is attached to the PSP broadcasts the signal and the integrated FM tuner in the headphones picks up the signal. Lets hope it can work with any kind of FM tuner. This is available for a lowly $14.99. More »
