iTrip is retailing at $49.99 at the moment in Griffin’s website.

iTrip Controller App

iTrip has released a free iTrip Controller app in App Store. It lets you take full advantage of your iPhone or iPod Touch’s multi-touch display.

You can tune, scan or access up to 3 preset stations for your iTrip.

iTrip Controller App should work for any iTrip models released after Sep 2009 so it would just this one at the moment.

At $49.99, iTrip is a little expensive among other FM Transmitters like this one. But, it does bring some of original Griffin technology like SmartScan and SmartSound that promises to make this a more fun experience for the customer.

Once this hits the online retailers like Amazon, the price is bound to be more appealing and I will update this post.
