Griffin ships RocketFM

Remember way back in January when Griffin Technology announced RocketFM, a self-powered, cross-platform, wireless USB FM transmitter? They said it would ship in the first quarter of 2005, but Q1 came and went with nary a peep from them about this rocket-shaped radio helper.

Here we are in the middle of Q2 and the RocketFM has finally arrived. It looks promising, too, considering the attractive featureset and price when compared to Airport Express

The $40 RocketFM uses any available FM frequency to transmit audio through your home or office stereo system. You can use it to broadcast audio streams, video soundtracks, iTunes, even Garageband compositions. And the good news is that any Mac or PC with USB can use it.
