Unit has definitely been worth it for me.

Here's some pics. I can't find the info on it just now.
Also, it has another handheld remote, an ipod cable, etc.

If you google FM Car Transmitters with Bluetooth, you can find about 1000 different types. All colors, shapes, styles etc. You can also find small units that will even play movies. Good luck. It took me months to decide what I really needed and wanted and what I thought looked good and had all the features I wanted.

Thanks for the pics PNA, I couldn't tell what brand it is, but I like it - guess I'll start looking at Amazon...

Got my GoFlex today.
It was easy to set up i never even looked at the instructions
the only negative thing so far is it shuts off if I grab the unit and twist it to a new position.

You might have a defective one then buddy, I suggest giving the makers a ring and asking for a new unit. Mine doesn't shut off if I move it around in any way. Love the hell outta this little thing hahahaha.

Btw, how's the quality suiting you? To me it seems like nothing can cause interference to the goGroove, which is sweet.

Before going for a swap, make sure you got a decent, tight fit, into the lighter socket. It's possible that on moving, it loses contact, which would cause it to shut down.

Also I'm glad to see that some folks took the plunge, and find the GoGrove acceptable.

One of my gripes is that I have to have the volume control on the Grove set past 20, in order to get decent volume out of the stock radio.

Other than that, I'm okay with the unit...

Yeah I do that as well, and mine usually sits around 26 volume in order to get a nice output from the car stereo itself. I guess not everything is perfect, but I'll take this over another shitty fm transmitter.

Oh and Louisiana just passed a no cell phone use, with your hands, so this helps there too.
With the top up phone use its perfect, not so good with it down..as expected...

one unit that is better is Soundfly. For $59 you get the blue tooth and a SD card slot. Much easier to place music on a SD card. I have the Soundfly Aux for $45. It has the SD, USB drive, a easy to read info screen that tells you what is playing and time and transmits that information on the car radio display on my other car with RDS. Haven't tried on the Crossfire but should work since our radios have RDS.

My unit has an SD slot, USB slot, Ipod Slot and on screen info as well. It also has 2 plus gig internal storage as well. Only way to go is with an SD slot.
