Support
Backed by Kensington's two-year warranty, the LiquidAUX also comes with free technical support.Important Note: Sound Effects
When using an auxiliary device in the car, you might hear a slight buzzing sound, engine noise, or high-pitched whine. That is because your car model has a grounding issue between the audio system and the power socket, which causes a whining or buzzing sound when you drive. This sound is not caused by your Kensington product; however, Kensington has an easy solution. Simply purchase an automotive ground loop isolator for your car that is compatible with a 3.5-mm jack. This simple tool will enable you to use your music in a safe, hands-free environment.What's in the Box
LiquidAUX Auxiliary Car Kit, remote control, and 4-foot audio extension cable.

Good concept - and a good implementation: 
After trying the deluxe version of this product (Kensington LiquidAUX Deluxe Auxiliary Car Kit with Remote for iPod; iPhone 1G, 3G I figured this one was missing the part that caused me all the grief - the holder. So I bought a $10 vent holder, and this.
It works exactly like I expected it to. The sound is excellent, the alternative holder is rock solid, and the iPhone doesn't suddenly decide it's not connected to the stereo system/charger. There seem to be lots of variants of this device for the iPod,...more info
Very nice if you pair it with a noise filter--otherwise don't bother:
Of course the ability to charge and listen to your iPod or iPhone is a great idea. One big reason I wanted this particular product was to eliminate excess wires. I got it for Christmas, and once I got it in the car, I immediately had problems with the high-pitched whirring noise that accompanies the engine. From reading the other posts, this is a problem in MANY other cars. I don't know if that's this product's fault, or my VW beetle's fault. Anyway, I bought a PAC SNI-1/3.5 Noise Filter from Crutchfield,...more info
I don't know what to say... I hate it, but think it is great: 
The biggest this thing has going for it is that it is the only thing like it. I have searched and searched and nothing comes close to this. If anyone has something like it I would love to know.
The LiquidAUX works great with iPods. It only uses one connection on the bottom of the iPod. This give several benefits. One, less cords and hassle; no longer do you need a cord for the power and one for the headphone jack. Second, the sound quality of the dock connector is measurably better than the headphone...more info
Doesn't work with all iPods:
I was originally told that this worked with my 3rd generation iPod but that was wrong. The first unit I received had a defective remote but the second unit seems to work fine (with my iPhone 3G).
