Default DigitalReviews Reviews the Qstarz BT-Q920 GPS Receiver w/ FM Transmitter

http://www.digitalreviews.net/revie...3-function.html

"Our quest for ever smaller GPS receivers has taken us today to the Qstarz BT-Q920 with a really tiny footprint.
However, the Qstarz BT-Q920 GPS Receiver also comes with an interesting addition which brings back its proportions to a normal size. I'm talking about the FM transmitter which allows you to play music through your car stereo system."




There is certainly no shortage of Bluetooth-enabled GPS receivers sporting the SiRFstarIII chip (which isn't a bad thing). Every new offering though seems to come with its own twist and the Qstarz BT-Q920's twist lies with its optional FM transmitter which should integrate with any mobile audio device with a standard audio output jack. Check out the review to see if the add-on makes this package a worthy deal.

I might be misinterpreting something here...but why would I use this device to play FM radio through my car stereo? As opposed to just playing the FM radio IN my car.

It's not FM radio (which I agree would be completely useless)... it's FM Transmitter... which allows you to use any audio device and pipe the sound out through the car speakers.
