I bought this cable because I wanted an audio cable that would be unplugged and moved around a lot and this looked like it could withstand the wear.
I was wrong. About two weeks after I had been using it, one of the ends of the cables started to rotate slightly if just barely twisted. This got worse and worse until the audio quality dropped suddenly, and then a day later audio wouldn't even transmit through it. At this point the end could rotate around the cable fully, indicating that whatever connection it had to it had been broken.
I was very impressed with the cable part of it, the material seemed very strong and durable, but where this fails is where the ends connect to the cable itself. At least in my case they were definitely not strong enough.
Beware of this cable.

Griffin Black iTrip FM Transmitter for iPod Review

This will not work with video iPod. The video iPod does not have the power source next to the audio out like all the other iPods. The video iPod only has the audio out (headphone jack).

This black version of the popular iTrip FM transmitter for third-generation iPods can play your music through any FM radio: in your car, at work, at a party; wherever the mood strikes you--as long as there's a radio handy. The iTrip gives you the cleanest possible signal, too, since you can tune for the best performance by choosing any radio station on the dial. What's more, the iTrip needs no batteries--it draws its tiny, nearly unmeasurable current directly from the iPod, and it can rotate out of the way so you can charge the iPod while the iTrip is still in use.There's not even a power switch--you just plug it in and go. It shuts off automatically after 60 seconds of silence, just like the iPod. If the iTrip is already connected to the iPod, it will turn itself on after it detects a few seconds of audio. With iTrip, you have over 100 stations to choose from, which you select directly from the iPod. An installed playlist from the supplied CD-ROM called iTrip Stations contains every available station. You can keep them all in your iPod or just keep the ones used regularly--you manage them just like songs. How does it sound? All the iTrip does is create a miniature FM radio station on top of your iPod, so it has the potential to sound as good as the best FM radio stations. The iTrip does not have the physical space to accommodate the iPod remote control (it lacks the required female iPod headphone connector to provide a signal pass-through), and the iTrip occupies the iPod's headphone jack, so it's one or the other at any given time. Be advised that some car windshields impair FM radio transmission, which could prevent you from using the iTrip with your car radio. Some windows have a metallic film that substantially blocks the FM signal traveling from within your car to your external antenna. You can usually tell which windshields have the film by looking carefully--if you see an unusual bronze or reddish tint, you might have the metal film; if you see a very fine grid pattern you might have woven metal wires. Check with your dealer to be sure. What's in the Box The iTrip transmitter and the iTrip CD-ROM.
