I have one and it works well.
There is no fast port adaptor on the bottom of the casing. That was in prototype models and was obviously a marketing mistake to include it.

got mine a few days ago, and it works fine, you have to find a clear channel, but you can specify down to .00(i.e. 88.35 Mhz). and adjust the phone position for best reception. good quality mp3's are clear and loud.

Blueunplugged now have them in stock, for UK customers:
http://www.blueunplugged.com/[....]R_60_FM_Music_Transmitter.aspx
Be careful of them though, they dont offer any sort of refunds unless the item is faulty. Can be a bit of an arse to deal with them too.

Get one from Blueunplugged.com or get one off Ebay? Has anyone purchased one from Ebay? Are they any good or are they dodgey fake ones?

The ones from blueunplugged will be of a good quality, the ones on ebay might not be, theres been a few QA issues and recalls on many MMR-60s.
The downside to blueunplugged, is that they offer no refunds policy unless the item is faulty. By UK law they cannot refuse to give the customer a refund, but then, do you have the time to take action against them if the item you receive doesnt live up to expectations ?
I got my Belkin Tunecast II from them, and although they said it was not faulty, they would not give me a refund because i wasnt happy with the poor quality of the reception. I didnt have the time to get into a dispute with them, and decided to keep the Tunecast (since it was less than £40, and is usable) instead.
Now im wondering whether its worth the risk of buying a MMR-60 just for the convenience of having a SE transmitter, instead of the Tunecast + 3.5mm adaptor + 3.5mm extention cable + K750i. If the MMR-60 does have poor reception like so many people have reviewed it as, it might be another waste of money..

I was thinking the same. I really really want to get one. Not wanting to sound gay, but they look really good together ( SE phone + MMR-60 ). No offence etaab but I dont like the idea of the 3.5mm connecter and the tunecast hanging off the edge of a nice SE phone. Some people have said they aint to clever, yet some say they've had no problems. I think I'm going to bite the bullet and get one. Could always throw it on Ebay if its shite!

I might just do the same, my 3.5mm adaptor broke in the car, how cheap is that ? i should have just got myself a HPM-70 to use with the Tunecast.
The upside to the Tunecast and the long extention cable is, i can plug my phone into it (along with all the cables), coil it up in the small coin holder below the stereo so its out of sight and i still get relatively good signal quality from it - no need to have wires hanging all over the car interior.
Im still debating whether to buy a MMR-60 or not, simply to replace the Tunecast, but if the reception in my car is poor, it'll be useless to me.

Do you a deal. You buy one, and if its any good, your a winner. But if its no good, I'll buy it off you. You can't lose!

At a knocked down price, maybe? There's me going on about buying one and I haven't even got a phone it'll fit on to! I'm waiting for the W810i to come out on Orange. I phoned them today and said it's due out early April. Can't wait!
