Hi all. Just went digging through a pile of random stuff and found an Itrip.
Essentially its a pushbutton stereo FM transmitter for Ipods with a very small LCD screen which displays the current frequency.
Can anyone think of a creative use for it? Its very short range with the antenna fitted, less than 5 metres as so-called "micropower".

I used one those to make a wireless servo controller. I encoded servo positions as an audio signal which could then be played right from a PC, or recorded onto an ipod, etc.
Of course you'll need a PIC or dweeno or something to decode it.
