Product Description

The GoGrooveTM Flex Pod was custom-designed from the ground up to provide the best sound quality possible by broadcasting on any bandwidth you desire from FM 88.1-107.9 while simultaneously delivering a constant recharge to your Apple products internal battery. Yet the new Flex Pod provides even more versatility by providing recharge capability to other USB-enabled products (like a GPS) as well utilizing the USB-A (5V, 1A) charging port and included USB cable. This new system far surpasses anything previously offered by Accessory Power. Every aspect of Accessory Power's previous mobile solution was redesigned and scrutinized to provide a mobile audio solution that would reflect the unique needs of today's evolving market. An improved flexible goose-neck allows users to position the Flex Pod for the most convenient access to your device. Accessory Power has also developed Positive Station LockTM technology that significantly improves the sound and locks in the station to ward off interference from competing broadcast signals. Even the silicon gel cushioned cradle was improved and now accommodates a greater number of Apple products, including the popular ShuffleTM brand. iPhoneTM 3G users are definitely in for a treat when they test drive the new GoGrooveTM Flex Pod. Revolutionary technology built-in to the charging cradle provides hands-free conversations through your car's speaker systems. When a call comes through, the music will automatically lower to provide user the ability to quickly field calls with a minimum of hassle, as well as providing the hands-free operation required by the laws of a growing number of States.

5.0 out of 5 stars A FM Transmitter that finally works well, October 14, 2009

The GoGroove Car mount/FM transmitter is working much better than other FM transmitters I have tried in the past. The advanced FM transmitter can block out weak FM signals and prevents hissing between songs that I experienced with other FM transmitters. This is a great product as long as the rubberized disk on the plug holds up. The rubberized disk may be a known problem area, since they included a spare disk with the system. Yes, I would recommend this product to other people!

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money!, October 19, 2009

This review is from: Accessory Power iPod and iPhone All in One Car Kit Cradle with FM Transmitter (Electronics)

Bought this FM transmitter after some online blogs few months ago for my iPhone 3G. I thought it came with a 3-year warranty so it wouldn't be too bad even if something went wrong. It turned out everything went wrong. The product was ok to begin with. I managed to get a couple relatively clean channels and used it for about a couple months. Then the transmitter started producing pretty bad static noise and eventually gave up (no longer in sync with the radio and would not even charge the phone).
Now the worst part, their customer service is NON-EXISTANT. I filled their online forums 3 times in past two weeks but nothing came back from them. Apparently they don't care about their customers. I finally fed up and threw this piece of crap into garbage can. My advice to you, the potential buyers, forget about buying this thing online, try local Best Buy and pay little extra for something else, you have much better chance.

This product fails in the most basic way. It will not stay upright (falls to one side or the other) and does not fit into the space available for it without being hit by the stick on my Civic; one of the most popular cars on the road. Do not waste your money on this product!
