Christian...offhand, do you happen to know the diff between the item  
you recommended and Griffin's Powerwave  
(http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/powerwave/index.html)? I  
know there's a big price diff $99.99 vs $179.95.

I was just getting myself ready to make that purchase.

Thanx,
Gene
