I agree about the iTrip not sucking the life out of batteries. You have to install the stations into iTunes and follow the directions to the T when setting up the station. It's still not going to be perfect sound-wise, however.
Another "toy" I bought (which seems overindulgent) is the wired remote. I can keep the iPod in my pocket (or belt clip or whatever you have) and have control over the volume, tracks, and pause/play switch at the end of the wire. It's very convenient.
One more thing for new iPod users...it may be tacky, but I kept the little plastic thing that goes on my click wheel. That way, it keeps my wheel shielded while still functioning properly.
