For the price of this audio accessory combination, it is really hard to complain much. The FM transmitter module allows the user to pipe his phone, MP3 player, etc. music to an unused FM station frequency on one's car radio, or any FM receiver. The resulting audio (the car or home speaker system) is a very pleasing alternative to the small device sound we usually hear.
As for the Portable Stereo Speakers, one must not expect too much from such a small device. While the bass is somewhat lacking, due to the small size, the range and tonal reproduction is a vast improvement over an in-ear headset, and one needn't walk around with all that stuff on his/her head!
Keep in mind also that the low end response (with speakers or a headset) can be vastly improved by adjusting the source device equalizer settings to favor bass response. One can not unrealistically expect thunderous bass from such a compact design, however.
Also, this package only specifically relates to the Sansa MP3 devices because of the small integral shelf which one may rest the device upon (like an iPod dock). Aside from that, the product will accommodate any audio device you wish to plug into it (3.5mm plug - Left/Right/Ground). The same applies to the FM transmitter, which is input and output device independent.
I must also mention that an unrelated problem with the speakers was immediately remedied by the DBROTH people - a very good indication of their devotion to customer service!
Thus, overall, this product is well worth the very minimal expense even if used rarely, and the seller people are really nice to deal with!

SanDisk Sansa Fuze 8 GB Video MP3 Player (Silver) Review

SanDisk Sansa Fuze 8 GB Video MP3 Player (Silver)

(More customer reviews)
What I really like about it is the size, capacity, and most of all price.
The codec support is about average, not great but it satisfies my needs as 99% of my music is encoded in mp3 format.
One of my dislikes is common among all sandisk mp3 players(and most other players) is that the charging/syncing port is proprietary. Not a big issue, mini-usb would have been nice though.
Video playback was smooth(used a mp4 350MB recorded tv show) no sync problems between the audio/video and no stuttering. Too small to really be considered for video playback though.
Picture viewing is about the same as video and by that I mean it works great and the pictures look ok but the screen is so small it is not practical to show off pics with it.
Voice recording works well, don't have to hold it directly to my face to clearly record sounds...although I'm not sure what this can be used for but it is there and works well.
The radio works great, easy station browsing, easy to add stations to presets, and reception is very clear.
The sound is very accurately produced at all ranges. The included headphones fit well and sound good. The volume goes up much higher than I could ever think I would need it. For those of you who are runners, I use the earphones that come with it and they direct the sound very well into my ears so I do not have to make it too loud and can still hear some of the environmental sounds: wind noise is hardly noticeable.
The screen is easy to see in all light conditions, bright, and easy to read.
The build quality feels great. It has generous weight to it, light enough to take running and not really notice it but heavy enough to give it a solid feel. The front of the device is a bit shiny and does tend to attract fingerprints easily but not scratches so far.
Expansion port works great, currently using a 4GB microsdhc to shuttle podcasts/audiobooks between it my pc.
Navigation is a breeze and the menus are very intuitive, the scroll wheel/buttons are easy to find and press even with the player not in sight.
Syncing I very easy to do without the need for bloated software. You can add media to it via a file explorer(drag & drop) or one of several media players like WMP, winamp, and a variety of others. The datbase is auto-updating and works flawlessly. I have seen a few reviews that say the database refresh takes a while. With a completely full internal memory and half full 4gb card my refreshes only take 15-30 seconds.
A few final notes. The boot-up is about 3-5 seconds from off to playing music after pressing the power button. It will resume the music exactly where you left it when turning it off. Actual usable memory is about 7.8 GB. 4 1/2 out of 5 stars, best on the market right now but not perfect of course.
UPDATE: 2 new "cons" I have come across. Technically the device is performing as intended but I am hoping for a firmware update to "resolve" these.
1. When scrolling, the speed of scrolling does not increase. Basically takes forever if the song you want is in the second half of the alphabet. This will probably be changed in the next firmware update though.
2. The podcasts are sorted by most recent first. This kind of makes since so you dont have to scroll to the bottom to listen to the newest one but it also causes a problem if you are trying to listen to a series in order and it starts playing through them backwards. :( Probably no "fix" for this issue although being able to choose how it is sorted would be great.

Griffin iTrip FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for Sansa Review

Griffin iTrip FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for Sansa
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We have used this unit in Chicago, Los Angeles, and on road trips. It works well, so long as you can find a clear channel. The unit works best when it is set to the middle channel of three clear channels in a row, so that the transmitter has a clear channel on either side of it. That's pretty hard to find in a major metropolitan area, so performance sometimes suffers. On rural highways (where we use it the most) clear channels are much easier to find, and performance is much better.
