Accessories? Does anyone know if there will be something that I can transmit the sound to my FM radio? Like the I-Trip for the I-Pod?Thanks

IRiver makes one, model AFT-100. It's pretty good but soon Toshiba is going to release a car adapter that charges the player as well as transmits FM audio. It will connect to that little docking port on the bottom of the player.

There always has been a way. Most FM transmitters plug into any headphone jack, such as this one (my favorite).iriver AFT 100 Mobile FM Transmitter

Yes, but I'm finding that IPod is still the only player that has an FM transmitter that also allows you to charge your player while in the car. I'm bummed by this and hope Toshiba will provide their own FM transmitter and charger.

You can connect your Sirius radio too this unit. You would have to hook up through the Aux. BUT, what I've been doing is I bought the 30 pin adapter from Apple so I could play and charge, my 5th generation I-pod too the top, and I have the Sirius APP. on my iPod, so I can play my Sirius account through this Yamaha unit. **Also, the look and build is awesome on this unit. I use as a bedside clock/radio. Cheers :)

I play my Creative Zen MP3 player by attaching it to the aux input. I dislike Apple iPods and do not know if there is an adapter for the aux to enable an iPod but the Zen works great.

You got to be smarter than your equipment your using.. Just kidding I have the same problem trying to get the FM radio to work on it, Bad design but cheap price so you got to expect that. I would reccomend buying a IPOD lol

I have the latest generation I-Pod nano. They provide uncompromised excellent sound and have a comfortable fit for my needs. The best out of whatever is out there (or at least whatever Best Buy has , as I sampled all that they have). Monitors work great with my I-Pod. One thing I noticed, though, that battery life decreases by about 20%. Difference being it takes more juice to power the Monitors as opposed to ear buds.

I use an auxiliary cable (fits the headphones) and I can plug anything into it. Not sure about the charging, I can fit my standard ipod in it for charging, but rarely do. For the money, it is totally worth it! I bought a different one a while back, and paid over $100 and LOVED it! The sound is pretty good for such a small unit.

I used the bluetooth adapter, getting better sound than aux. also drain battery quicker. must be in direct sunlight.

Thanks, Darryl. I'm looking for a decent stereo system I can use with iPhone, iPod and iPad. I'd also like it to have CD capabilities. There are so many ways to go!

No, you'd need an AUX port. You might want to look for a unit that outputs to your FM radio.

I'm with you... the Altec T612 doesn't have the FM receiver but works well with iphones whereas the iM600 and iM600USB have the FM capability, but are not perfect for the iphone. What extras does the USB version provide and will it come out before Christmas 2008?

I have the same question. Will this work without the charger plugged in? In other words, can the ipod power the fm transmitter or is it the charger?

I have a Bose that I put my ipod on for fitness classes I travel to. How I can use this without bringing another speaker?

So can you listen to a different channel on your stereo at the same time as you are using the FM transmitter? I'm just wondering on long trips, do you have to unhook the transmitter whenever you feel like listening to music on the radio?

I agree, but you have another option. Use the FM transmitter to send the Garmin audio to your car speakers but also use the Garmin to play your MP3's. That way you get music and directions sent through your radio. Works great.

The adapter is just a blue tooth music receiver. Search Amazon for "bluetooth music transmitter" and you'll see several devices that will convert the headphone audio from your I pod into bluetooth. Then you'd pair your BT headphones with that. Good luck.

In back there is a mini-USB jack (not micro) only. There is no audio-out. One option:I occasionally use it when playing via Bluetooth to a Bose Soundlink II. It holds either my iPhone or Ipad without tipping over and sound quality over BT is pretty darn good.

My HD works with it as well. All it needed was an update, and that was done by simply plugging up the zune to it. I suspect that's why it's jumped up incredibly in price... guess I should've bought 3 instead of one while it was cheap!And just a general note... fm transmitters all seem to put out the same quality, no matter if it cost 5$ or 85$ dollars -- at least in all the places I've used it in. I only bought this one because it was crazy cheap at the time. At the current price, my 10$ one from ebay may not look as nice, but does the exact same job.
