So this ‘MP3-Car’ is sort of interesting, if cheap looking. It looks like the idea is that you plug any USB flash drive into the FM transmitter base, which then presumably just reads file with an .mp3 extension off the drive an plays it. It has a line out, as well, that deactivates the FM broadcasting when in use. Problem is, the Anyware.com site that has the picture doesn’t have a price or a ‘buy now’ link, and if the Altech MP3-WM32 or MP3-RF38 are the same units, the price is listed as $118. Without an integrated LCD screen at least, I’m thinking $40 is more like it.

Update: Reader Callum Prentice found a review of the device, which includes a link to a vendor that is selling them for $60. That sounds about right. Oh, but be careful with that Merconnet vendor. I’m hearing some sketchy things.

There’s one at I4U, too.
