5 out of 5 stars The old dependable   September 19, 2008
I bought this three years ago after I got my first iPod, a 4G that has long since been sold, but I've kept this as the dock on my computer because no matter what, it still works, looks wonderful, and even though I have the Universal Dock in my bedroom to charge and watch iPod content via video out, this simple dock still works well, even with the Classic and the iPhone. It doesn't fit perfectly, but both devices still look good. I wouldn't get the Universal Dock just for computer syncing, but this one is perfect for that use.


1 out of 5 stars Doesn't do much.   March 17, 2006

As someone else pointed out, "All the dock does is make the iPod stand up instead of lying there." That's it. You'd think for $40 it would also include, say, an extra connecting cord or wall plug so you could charge the thing while it stands up. But no.


1 out of 5 stars Ha You think this dock charges your Ipod? Think again.   March 20, 2005

Why waste the money? I bought two of these - one for a 10G IPod and one for a 15G IPod - it charges neither. The box even states that it will not charge these models but you don't see that in the advertisements now do you?


3 out of 5 stars considering the dock...   September 24, 2004

If you are considering the 15GB ipod you might as well get the 20GB ipod which gives you a dock. This dock is about 38 dollars and the 15GB ipod is about 250 dollars which adds up to 288. A 20GB ipod is 275 on amazon...so make good decision. But if you already have an ipod then u don't have to worry about the cost. Just get the dock.


4 out of 5 stars Nice work if you can get it   June 10, 2004

Let's put it this way: I think the dock is great. Aesthetically is much more pleasing to see my iPod propped up securely in this sturdy little accessory. Functionally, the line out jack is great for hooking up to a stereo. And for the sake caution, I prefer having a spot to place this pricey little unit in, rather than just leaving it lying down, just waiting for the first inadvertant soda can to be set on it, or crushed under a stack of books, and so on.

The price doesn't really bother me; it could be lower, but it's not prohibitive, considering how much you just paid for your iPod. And that's why overall, I'd give the dock 4 stars...

... But not 5. Because having said all of that, it's really sort of chintzy of Apple to make one have to pay extra for a basic component and, when all is said and done, one you don't necessarily actually need. So, in the end, it's nice, if you can get it -- but if not, you're not missing much.
