iPod Nano Car Add-ons?

[timmmah]

Hi,

I'm getting one of the new 8GB iPod Nano's delivered in this lovely looking blue by the postie tommorow morning.

Always wanted an iPod and although i've been a Mac user for a long time I just haven't wanted one until they developed more and I think now is the perfect time.

I want to be able to hook this up to the car wirelessly using a FM transmitter. Also i wouldnt mind some kind of cradle that maybe could hold the iPod and would slot into an air vent.

Can anyone who has an FM transmitter for a nano recommend anyway and are there any car holders available?

Thanks

or this one: http://shop.ipodworld.co.uk/iPodWor.../Macally_FMCup_FM_Transmitter_and_Charger.htm

Can't decide

I have usd one of these FM units and to be honest, they aren't great. I upgraded to a Sony h/u with a digital iPod connection which runs into the glovebox so its hidden, and songs can be selected either by the h/u itself or the remote which came with it. The names of the songs etc display on the LCD h/u display too, no more looking at that feable clock display. Think it cost me about £200, but WELL worth the money. That would be my recommendation, really is SO much better in terms of sound and functionality.

The FM unit that always seems to review highly (and I've done loads of research) is the standard Kensington Digital FM Transmitter (£34 on Amazon). I've ordered one for my Touch.

I bought a nano as I didn't feel comfortable about leaving (on the odd occasion) my iPod Touch in the car.
