Kensington® Introduces Pico FM Transmitter for iPod®
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. – January 9, 2006 – Kensington, a worldwide leader in mobile computing accessories, announced today that it has expanded its award-winning line of iPod accessories with the February availability of the Pico FM Transmitter for iPod. Smaller than the iPod nano itself, the Kensington Pico FM Transmitter was designed with the iPod nano in mind, but works seamlessly with any iPod with the dock connector.

"Kensington's FM Transmitters have received many accolades since being introduced and we are confident that the new Pico FM Transmitter for iPod will be as well-received as others in the product line,"said Giovanni Sena, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Kensington. "Kensington continually gives iPod enthusiasts the most innovative accessories to get the most of their digital music experience."

The Kensington Pico FM Transmitter for iPod connects easily to the dock connector of any iPod and uses the bright iPod screen for easy viewing of station information. Users simply tune their car or home stereo to a clear radio station, select the same station on their iPod and press play – it's that easy!

Key Features Include:

  • Ultra-thin, ultra-sleek design matches perfectly with iPod nano
  • Plays music from your iPod wirelessly through your car or home stereo
  • Uses iPod's high-resolution LCD to display station information. No software required for this functionality
  • Advanced power management technology minimizes battery drain on your iPod
  • Easy-to-use station presets

"iPod enthusiasts can kick off the New Year with one of the coolest new accessories available for the nano and any iPod with dock connector," said Sena.

Available online and at select national retailers beginning in Q1, the Kensington® Pico FM Transmitter for iPod (SKU #33365; black) will have an estimated street price of $59.99.
