Three-Way Car Cigarette Lighter Socket Splitter w/ USB Port Review

I had multiple problems with this.
First, one of the first things I tried to plug into one of the outlets went in too far, to the point where it wouldn't come out (the springy metal parts that compress when you insert something apparently went in so far that they released on the other side of the sleeve, making it impossible to retract), I ended up needing to break the thing to get it out. Subsequently, using the outlets that still worked, I've been afraid to push things in too far, and maybe that's why things often pop out a bit and I need to re-insert them.
Also, I intended to use the USB port to power some speakers, but it was useless for that because it put a horrible noise into the speakers.
So... it basically works... but you need to be sure not to over-insert things, be prepared for things to pop out on their own, and don't use the USB for an audio device.
UPDATE: Even if you push things good and solidly, they often pop out. The final straw... last night, when I pulled the connecting piece out of the car's lighter socket, that whole part of the assembly fell apart, it's various pieces scattered over the floor of the car, and I never got it back together.

Mach Speed Cartunes Max FM Transmitter Review

This device comes in handy if you have a long drive and want to load hours worth of MP3s or WMAs to listen to on the road. You'll get better quality from an iPod with a BlueTooth interface into your car's stereo system, but for those of us with older cars and tighter budgets, this device comes in handy.
My biggest complaint is the sound quality. The signal is broadcast by FM, which of course offers poor quality sound compared to a digital transmission from CD or iPod straight to your stereo. Furthermore, you can pick up interference from radio stations on neighboring frequencies, and the player itself I think suffers from a lack of audio fidelity. The end result is comparable to an AM radio broadcast (or an FM broadcast where you're not getting a perfect signal).
It's not so noticeable over the noise of car traveling at high speeds on the freeway, but if you're picky about audio fidelity or want to use this mostly for surface driving in a quiet car, you might be disappointed with the sound. Overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to have to shuffle CDs on a long drive and can't afford a nicer setup. For the money, I feel this is a good buy.
