Broadcasting Loud and Clear
Posted on August 17, 2010
When you’re driving around town there are plenty of factors that can negatively affect your phone call; the loud whirring of your air conditioning, those squeaky breaks you still haven’t had checked, or the teenager beside you blaring their radio at ear-splitting levels. Not to mention, holding your phone isn’t the safest of habits when you’re trying to maneuver a vehicle. Fortunately, many of today’s smart phones can be used with an FM transmitter that allows the audio output of your phone call to be played over your speaker system.For just under 40.00, accessory geeks offers a 3-in-1 iPhone car kit.
