USB Flash Memory Car Adapter

We recently purchased a USB adapter for the car and I'm really happy with it! It might sound like a very silly purchase considering that we don't own a car, but it only cost 5 pounds ($10) and we rent cars often enough that we knew it'd come in handy. We tested it out this past weekend and we're surprised how excellent the sound quality is considering the cheap price.

It's really cool because it works with any USB flash drive, so I loaded up a 2GB one tonight with songs for our 5-day road trip through Ireland, which starts on Saturday. In case you haven't seen one of these before, below is the picture from Amazon where we purchased it. It plugs into the cigarette lighter and then you tune it to an unused radio frequency...much like a drive-in movie :)
