Belkin TuneBase: Smarter Than Your Average iPod FM Transmitter

Belkin’s TuneBase FM is an FM transmitter that lets you charge, power and listen to your iPod in the car by sending its output to your FM stereo. While it seems like every iPod accessory maker offers a product like this, TuneBase FM has a few unique features that make it one of the best — if not the best — FM transmitters we’ve ever tested. But first, a confession: I hate FM transmitters. There isn’t a single one that sounds good enough to my ear. Furthermore, an FM transmitter can be working pretty well one minute, and belching hissy static the next.
