Jupiter Jack turns car stereo into hands free kit |
I have never purchased anything off a TV commercial like the ones the spokes people always tell you to call now for. Most of the stuff they peddle looks like junk to me. The company behind some of those oddball products — Telebrands — has announced a new gadget that works with mobile phones.
The device is called the Jupiter Jack and plugs into the headphone port of mobile phones. The idea is that the device will send the audio from your calls over the cars speaker system so you can hear while driving without having to hold the phone.
The issue I see with the device is that it only broadcasts on the 99.3 FM frequency. If you happen to live in an area where there is interference on that channel of someone broadcasts on the frequency you are out of luck. The device is available in several retail stores for $19.99.

Interesting enough the Jupiter Jack was one of the last products Billy Mays made an infomercial before he passed away.
The company was deciding whether or not they would air the infomercial for it. It looks like they did.
I’ ve never buy what commercial on Tv But now i bought Jupiter jack and dashbord I am disppoited with S&h $ 20 very expensive
Unfortunately I also ordered 4 of them ,the Jupiter Jack Device
for some friends at Christmas time ,but where I live,in Toronto
Ontario,that station FM99.3 is not heard at all..Only a lot of inter
ferences.So I rushed to cancel my order before I contact Master Card.I hope that it will go through OK. If not I will report to
Master Card.However,for areas that the station is heard,it is a real treat at the low cost of $20.00 including a free one.Time will tell of course how reliable are the Company first,as well as the product
The jupiter jack DOES work. and it has 2 settings 99.3 and 101.3 Chris, you do NOT need the station to be broadcasting. In fact it is best if it is a dead station. I have tried it on both stations and it works great. I would recomend it to anyone that wants an inexpensive way to have hands free. Also it will work in your house or with an mp3 player!!!
