I always prefer a cassette adapter to FM transmitters (I've had two of the latter, including one iTrip). The old iTrips were definitely the best of the FM transmitters, and worked …

I have found if I lay my iTrip and iPod right on top of my home stereo, it sounds great, and I live under the crowded airways of San Diego.

This is ideal timing. My old iTrip stopped functioning just last week and I had been meaning to buy a new one (mine works fantastically...so much so that I don't use the line-in o…

I just got one and the sound quality is so bad the thing is pretty useless, but I guess it's better than nothing in a pinch. At least it has the LCD so avoiding that ridiculous sch…

Actually I haven't tried it with the AC adapter yet, maybe that will help...

I read the playlist mag review among other ones out there saying this one being a big improvement over the last iTrips (not a huge achievement by any means), so I bit the bullet an…

I think the Newer Technology Roadtrip! transmitter + charger got a higher rating than the iTrip. It only works in the car 'cuz it uses the car's cigarette lighter as its power sour…

hey guys I got my itrip LCD today from a UK Store!!!(Amazing as we always seem to be last with everything) was so surprised as the pre order date was for in two weeks time they mu…

I had bought an iTrip when i bought my 3rd gen iPod when they first came out and that iTrip was absolutely horrible. The quality was subpar to even normal FM radio. My father bough…

I'm moving to Japan later in the year to live for 6 months or so, thought it would be good time to get a new powerbook as I'm pretty sure they'd be cheaper there than here (I'm in …

One important note, the Japanese PowerBook might have different keyboard layout to cater the Japanese market. (I remember I saw the different keyboard layout when I was in Japan l…

Damn man, you sound just like me 5 months ago. I'm off to Japan early next month and first chance I get, i'm heading to either Ginza or Shibuya to pick myself up a PowerBook. Fir…

RE: Bilingual keyboards. Case comparison. I purchased my 12" G4 Powerbook in South Korea. It has both English and Hangul (Korean) characters without any layout differences (the …

Not much difference. If you need an english layout keybroad and a cheap pb, why not go to Japan via HongKong? All I can say is that the computers in Hongkong are much more chea…

Regarding the keyboard: You can type in any language you want regardless of what type of keyboard layout you have. All you need to do for that is to enable/disable languages in th…

>> I don't know whether you've ever tried to type anything in Korean on a keyboard, but they use the exact same *layout* as a standard US keyboard.<< Read my posting a…

I bought all of my PowerBooks in Tokyo, and they were several times more expensive (my PB 170 was 4 x the U.S. price after currency conversion) than in North America, but Apple has…

Well, when you compare i.e. the price for a 12" PB (Superdrive) on Apple Store Australia (2749$; around 233000 Yen) and on Apple Store Japan (199290 Yen), it's way cheaper to buy …

Hey, I was just in Japan, at the Ginza store, the guy there said it is no problem to swap the keyboard out on a notebook for an english only one if you wanted.
