Groupon are doing a £19.99 deal on it and seems it may be worth a punt TBH at that price.

Guess it depends if you want your calls eavesdropped by anyone driving past at the time?

?? because its a radio frequency that transmits it to your radio??

Exactly. It doesn't have speakers, so the sound it makes is via FM to your radio, or a nearby radio...

The range will probably be short, but I for one wouldn't be comfortable.

and they'd have to just happen to be driving about with the same frequesncy set on their radio (which won't have any radiio stations on it, otherwise you wouldn't use it for your phone calls) on the off chance of hearing a split second of your phone call?

I wouldn't worry... seems expensive though.
