I bought a Belkin Tunecast II last week, for $30. It allows me to listen to my P910 in the car, through the car's FM stereo.
The Tunecast II plugs into a standard headphone socket (i.e. you'll need the usual 2.5mm -> 3.5mm adaptor for the P910). It then lets you specify the exact FM frequency you want to use (one that is not used by a radio station in your area), you can tune in your car's radio to the same frequency and as long as the phone is less than about 3m from the car radio, it works rather well.
Good sound too - obviously limited by the capability of FM more than by the P910. Much better than one of those dodgy cassette things (especially if your car has no tape player!).
One neat side-effect of this setup is that when a call comes in on my P910, it obviously mutes the music!
Is this news to you? No doubt masseur will point me to various past postings, but nothing came up when I searched for "tunecast".

These look great! Gonna get one of those! Good performers are they? So many of these things sound like great ideas and look simple but sometimes are real duffers!
