Does it work with a cigarette lighter because the pictures shows that kind of hook up, so I am confused?
The Belkin Tune Base Direct with Handsfree for Iphone is pictured with a cigarette lighter connector but yet in one of the questions somebody else was recommended to the Fm version of this. So what is going on because your pictures of the product show two different connectors, I think???

Is this compatable with i phone 3GS?
Belkin TuneBase Direct with Handsfree for iPhone
- Asked by Kumaravel A from Hurstville
- Dec 4, 2009
- Flag as inappropriate
AnswerWell, yes and no. Yes, the charger works. And, the audio will work because you HAVE TO plug the audio cable into the headphone jack.
So, the NO is because they AREN'T using the 3GS hardware interface of the dock to send out the audio and iPod control features.- Answered by Steve V from Glendora

Clarity of communication in handsfree mode
Surely the above review is for the fm transmitter model and not for the direct (Aux) model, otherwise why is he/she mentioning frequency and lcd display? Slightly confused..... Its only fair that if someone is to give the product a bad rating, at least make sure its the right product.
Also with respect to the handsfree functionality, I presume it works as a speakerphone with the callers voice coming through the cars stereo system? does this mean the person you are speaking to can hear themselves on the car stereo and further more, there is no mention of a microphone so the ability to speak to the caller is only as good as the functionality of the iphone in speaker mode?- Asked by James G

AnswerWith the 3GS is was pretty darn good. Comparable to any handsfree device I have used. Does not seem to function well with iPhone 4
