Sharper Image EC-P115 Portable Speaker Docking System Review

Sharper Image EC-P115 Portable Speaker Docking System
Average Reviews:

Apparently, the below reviews are related to a Sharper Image Humidifier unit and not this speaker unit. There are no "tanks" or "cool mist settings" on this speaker-dock. Hopefully Amazon will straighten this out. As for this speaker-dock unit.... I find it to be quite adequate overall, however a little light in the bass area. I would have also liked to have seen a remote control. I will verify for anyone having a 3Gs iPhone, this unit DOES work with it and does not give you that annoying "this is not compatible, do you want to switch to airplane mode" message. Plays and charges just fine. A decent unit all in all.

Not much to say about this simple product other than "it just works." I've installed this adapter in a couple different iHome radios at home and it works perfectly with my iPhone 3GS as well as my wife's iPhone 4 (with the bumpers).

Soundfly-i Ultimate iPod / iPhone 4, 3G, 3Gs Auto-scan Fm Transmitter Charger with RDS & Remote Control Review

Soundfly-i Ultimate iPod / iPhone 4, 3G, 3Gs Auto-scan Fm Transmitter Charger with RDS and Remote Control

I like the design of this product very much, but it suffers from a fatal flaw. The transmitter is weak. This is in direct conflict with what other reviews say. Also, the unit only broadcasts from 88.1-107.9 -- other websites and the back of the packaging claim its capable of 87.6 to 107.9.
From this, I think I know why the transmitter is so weak. Apparently, this unit originally did not comply with FCC regulations and probably was a very strong transmitter that could do the full FM frequency. At some point, apparently very recently, the FCC probably forced Satechi to remedy this and now it can no longer do 87.6-88.0 and no longer broadcast a signal powerful enough to be received from more than 6 yards out as the FCC requires.
If you look at reviews on Amazon, you'll notice the FM transmitters made by companies you've never heard of all get the high 5 star reviews while the ones made by big name brands (like Monster and Belkin) get absolutely trashed in the reviews. This is because ANY FM transmitter that actually complies with FCC regulations is garbage in a large city with heavy airwave saturation. The cheap chinese ones rarely comply with these regulations cause they constantly change brand names, anyways. The bigger players usually do play the by the rules and their products suffer as a result.
In this case, I suspect Satechi has recently been forced to start playing by the rules based on the transmitter I received. The weak signal and newly restricted (at least it appears to be a new change) frequency range are dead giveaways of this.
Sadly, that makes the unit hard to recommend. It's not Satechi's fault, but this transmitter just sucks in terms of signal strength (which means static *all* the time and an inability to broadcast "over" another signal if you can't find an empty frequency). Great design, but unless you live out in the middle of nowhere you probably won't be able to hear your music without static.
