The Venturi Mini works with music phones and Bluetooth-equipped MP3 players.
How many times has a handheld caused you to swerve on or off the road? Just because your car isn’t covered with mementos doesn’t make it right. However, the Venturi Mini does.
This little gadget uses wireless Bluetooth technology to stream music in the car, as well as allow for hands-free calling. Just plug it into your car’s 12-volt power port, and you can give your hands a break from multitasking while driving.
It works with MP3-enabled phones, as well as stand-alone MP3 players; up to four different Bluetooth devices can connect. It even charges them.
The Venturi Mini should be available in time for stocking stuffers; it’s got an MSRP of $129.

I live in the SF Bay Area, FM bandwidth is heavily congested here. I am unable to use the FM transmitter feature because of all the noise on every FM frequency (whether or not its in use by another radio station). Anybody who lives with congested airwaves will suffer the same fate as me.
The Phonebook Download feature only works on certain phones. It does not work on my Motorola RAZR2 V9m.
Emailed Venturi’s customer service on their web site about these issues. They essentially told me I’m SOL.
I’ll be returning this product since the features I wanted (and needed) to work don’t work.
