Logitec Walkman FM Transmitter

 

About a year before I started the blog, Sony announced the "designed for Walkman" program to encourage 3rd parties to develop new accessories for the Walkman brand.  This past June Logitec, (not to be confused with Logitech), introduced a FM transmitter for the Walkman which will allow you to use your Walkman in your car.  In addition the device will also charge your Walkman, both 12V and 24V are supported.
