    I got one from here:

    http://www.ledshoppe.com/Product/com/CA4002.htm

    for USD8 (postage is free). It has only two frequencies, but that isn't really a problem as the range is nothing like the clamied 100 feet - more like 10. It has a USB socket to power your MP3 player, and sound quality is OK.

    That said I don't use it much since I got my Aldi SD card stereo...

    Not true I have one with 8 frequencies and its sometimes usefull to change due to interference , having only two may be a problem, especially in a congested area such as London where the airways are jammed packed.The legit broadcaster for the frequency can ruin the reception of the modulator frequency, even if its a few Hz off.

    Works fine in the big city near where I live anyway, but I couldn't speak for London... not somewhere I go really.

    It just a matter of whether or not the frequency is being used and the output at that frequency. If the modulator used Radio 1 frequency for example, and given the output of that I think it would cause a problem, but usually the frequency of the modulator is at the bottom or top of the broadcast band avoiding most legit transmissions, but in built up areas, more frequencies are in use/receivable.

    I got one from ebay for my SE K750 and works a treat. I'll post the type below, but there are lots of suppliers for such an item so don't necessarily buy from this one.

    Its got usb input as well so will take a usb drive loaded with music.

    Although the OP item looks good.

    So are you saying that your order no longer shows up in your account? I placed an order on the 29th aswell and have had three emails - confirmation, order processed and shipped come through. Still not received goods yet but my order still shows up in my account as shipped.
