I've just picked this up for £29.99 from Argos Clearing House. It's an absolute bargain. Sound quality is great and despite what some other users have said you can save FM presets (up to 18). The USB input only supports MP3/WAV and isn't really designed for IPods - you need a different model for that. However, you can connect your IPod easily to the rear AUX input (which is what I have done by running a short 3.5mm jack wire into the glove compartment). So now I can play MP3 CDs (more albums than I used to be able to get in my old CD changer), run my IPod using the IPod controls (much easier than the radio) and enjoy greatly enhanced sound quality. A doddle to fit also in my old Alfa Romeo.

Sounds great, but....bought to replace standard fitment Blaupunkt in my Fiat Doblo, problems soon mounted. As it was bought to run my iPod through the front mounted USB, first problem was the USB didn't work! No iPod was recognised, nor a USB stick with SD card. Next up, the unit fails to remember any settings inputed. Needs switching on each time car is started, and everytime CD goes back to track one...will not "hold" any FM radio presets. Guess what, it's going back....
