In a classic cup holder style the Macally FMCup is an iPod dock and FM transmitter for your car made simple.
The dock comes with a cigarette lighting charging cable as well as three different docking inserts - so irregardless of which iPod you have it will fit firmly in the cup holder.
The dock has a FM transmitter and Channel buttons on the dock for locating your “free” station. On the back of the cup holder is the Audio-In jack set for any 3.5 mm line-in jack, as well as a sliding release for changing the docks and the plug for the power cord.
Since car cup holders seem to vary in size the dock has four spring loaded sides set to contract or expand for whichever cup holder you have, and as long as your cup holder is by the dash it keeps the iPod in easy viewing range for when you wish to change songs. (Which hopefully you only do at a stoplight!)

The TransPod for the iPod shuffle is basically a mini radio station that broadcasts the Shuffle’s music to the FM radio in your car. The music is played through an unused radio frequency.
The TransPod docks your Shuffle nicely for easy access while it charges. You may end up fighting with your passenger over songs as tuning buttons are positioned on both sides, however you may also miss the tree since someone else can search for your favorite song.
It comes with four preset stations, so you can set it to the frequencies you use most. It also allows you to charge other devices like cell phones and portable gaming systems.
It features a Line-out function for use with a cassette adapter or stereo input cable. It also offers you a Bonus Input that will transmit the audio of any MP3 player or device and it’s great for broadcasting sound from video games or movies in your car, van, truck or boat!

We Americans spend over 500 million hours per week in our cars - while making 70% of our phone calls.
The California Highway Patrol, conducted a study and found that making and receiving these calls via hand-held cell phones, were the leading cause of accidents generated by distracted drivers.
Now we have chosen to add to the distraction, by not only reaching for our cell phone, but also by rolling the click wheel on our iPod, switching stations on our satellite radio or trying to work our satellite navigation system - all on separate systems, placed in separate areas. This can then cause random scrambling as our cell phone rings - still in our purse, or reaching for the iPod after it is dropped while attempting to change songs. These two or three seconds of looking down is often all it takes for the wheel to turn, or for something to happen in front of you seen too late when your eyes return to the road.

BMW has one of the sleekest cars around - Go to the right neighborhood in L.A. and you wonder how anyone finds their car
when leaving a parking lot, as they appear to all be the same and are almost always black. (that really wasn’t part of the story just remembering a twilight zone L.A. experience)
Anyway - the rumor stands that iPhone connectivity will be available in later versions of BMW’s 7-series sedans. The service would work with Bluetooth and is rumored to have lots of cool communication features - As Apple is working with them on their new in-dash i-drive system also controlled via Bluetooth wireless - it could have some very cool features.
