Default FM Modulator to connect iPaq w/o Wires

I have an iPaq with a 1/2gb SDIO card. I have several CDs on the card and listen to them when I'm flying someplace, etc. I would like to listen to my iPaq through the standard audio system on my 2002 S2000. This would also allow me to use the turn-by-turn from inexpensive GPS software that runs on the iPaq. Some people have suggested I add a BlitzSafe connector to my audio system which effectively gives me an aux input. Others suggested a FM Modulator that must be tied in via an antenna split. I found at akron a FM modulator (SoundFeeder SF250) that allows for a no-touch hookup. I just plug it into my iPaq and tune to one of the pre-set FM channels to be good-to-go.

Does anyone have any experience with this device?

I have not used that specifc on, but I have seen and tested similar.

They may work fine in rual areas. However, in a radio station heavy area like Chicago, I could never get a clear signal.

I have hard positive reports from people that do not live in major metropolitan areas and curses from people that do live in major metropolitan areas.

So, YMMV.
