Found a lightly used unit on Ebay for three bucks. Needed something small and battery powered to fit into an R/C ship model project so I could transmit from the ship to any radio set up on the shore. I like the stylish, minimal look. The controls are intuitive and I am impressed with how many frequencies are available. The frequency display is bright and sharp with a nice light almost florescent in appearance. The display shows in easy to read numbers the frequency, battery status icon and if you are transmitting mono or stereo. The display's down side is the 3 seconds it lights up before shutting the screen down.
The unit uses one AAA battery and it lasts about 8 hours per battery using Duracell pile alkaline power source. My advice for those who will be heavy users is to invest in the batteries that are rechargeable. Only weakness I could find in the power department is the battery is the only power source. You cannot plug a lighter socket in a car nor does it have the capability to run off a 120v step down power unit you can plug in the home's receptacle.
It came with the 3.5 headphone cord so you can plug any audio source that also has a 3.5 headphone jack.
The fit and finish are quality that you would expect from a Philips product but due to the mirror smooth black polish finish smudges easily.
Range inside house appears to be around thirty feet using an old Bell and Howard portable world band radio. Sound quality transmit is exceptionable and clear.
Bottom line: listed price of around 40 dollars makes this a bit pricey in relation to other units which do a good job at a cheaper price, having owned several mp3/car/transmitters. But if you can come across one of these at a cheap price used I would jump on it as the unit gets the job done.
