Electronics : Griffin 9125-IFM30 iFM - FM Radio and Remote for iPod
Rating: 
- A mixed review
This is a great product. The radio is clear and it is really easy to use. It also has the ability to switch between the radio and being a remote for the I-Pod on it which means that you do not have to use the I-Pod itself to change between the two. This is something I have not seen on any of the similar products I have looked at. It is also very reasonably priced compared to other products.
However, I bought my first one in January. Around June, one of the headphones kept switching of as there seemed to be a wire loose. I put this down to my abuse of the product (I used to squash the wires in an attempt to get the I-Pod to stand up so I could watch video at the gym) and bought another one.
I am now in August and once again there seems to be a loose connection which means that one headphone cuts out with almost every movement. Very frustrating and I have been really careful with it this time.
I am now looking for another product but am finding it difficult to find another which has the functionality of this one and is as good value for money.

- Waste of money!!
I purchased one of these from somewhere else and after a couple of months small usage it has fell apart the sides fell off and the buttons fell out!! tried getting back together but it impossible so not very good i mean it still works sort of but it looks messy and will in time stop working all together as dirt and dust will get inside it. not very well made will be buying a proper apple remote next time !! Griffin I thought you were a good company but now I take that back!!!!!!!!
People of the IPOD generation only buy proper Apple products they might cost more but at least they don't break within a couple of months.

- The description is misleading
The description of this product states: "iFM is also a recording device, with a built in microphone to record voice, or change modes to capture live FM radio directly to the iPod!". This is misrepresentaion as there is no microphone and switching modes does not allow recording.
If you want something that will record from either voice or radio, stick with Creative Zen products. They are much easier to use and do not require special additions that fail to live up to their claimes.

- Perfect Accessory
This is the perfect accessory for the ipod, the radio reception is excellent and the remote control works well. The only thing you might want to consider is buying a set of headphones with a shorter lead. I liked mine so much I bought my brother one and he's happy with it.
Rating: - Excellent buy
A lot cheaper than the apple alternative and goes well with my black video ipod
Reception is excellent and the auto scan function finds radio stations quickly. Added bonus is that this also acts as a remote for the ipod when you're not using the radio. you can pause play skip and adjust the volume.
Highly recommended
