 Good value dock with more features than Apple's August 18, 2006

I use this dock to play my 60GB video ipod through my home stereo system and can't fault it. All the features work; including the extra ones with the remote (shuffle, repeat, next album...). Represents much better value than the Apple universal dock and IR remote and does more. Highly recommended!
Does work with 2G Nano November 7, 2006

I was concerned that the extended functions would not work with my 2G 8GB Nano, after reading an earlier review, but everything works without problem. Maybe the reviewer has a first gen. Nano? It did not come with a Nano dock adaptor, but the one supplied with the Nano fits fine.
It looks great, takes up very little space and the sound output is excellent. The remote control does not need to be pointed directly at the dock, it worked in any direction I aimed.
Overall very good value, no need for an Apple branded dock.
Great and cheap! January 31, 2007

Well this is the third iPod dock I've tried for my 5th generation iPod 30GB, and it's by far the best value one.
The package I received came with: the dock (about W10xL12xH3 cm), the remote (about W4xL10xH0.5 cm) with battery, 4 dock adapters (for the mini, nano, 5G30gb/4G20gb, and 5G80gb/4G60gb), a power brick (this is pretty big), and a US and UK plug for the power brick.
The dock itself is made from a shiny black plastic with the logic3 logo on the front right, the IR sensor is concealed behind a blue transparent plastic window which also holds a LED which lights up blue when the unit is connected to power. The grate on the top is also just for show, there aren't really any holes there, and it certainly doesn't contain a speaker as some reviewer here seemed to expect. The outlets on the back (from left to right) are: DC in, s-video out, 13-pin dock connector, composite-video out, line (3.5mm jack) out. Allowing connection to power, a TV (for video and audio), a hi-fi (for audio), and your computer for syncing.
The remote is compact and neat, allowing you to control the basic functions of the iPod, it doesn't however let you navigate through any menus. From left-to-right, top-to-bottom the remote buttons are: next album, shuffle, next playlist, prev album, repeat, prev playlist, skip back, play/pause, skip right, vol-, vol+. The remote is very simple, almost easy to lose!
The only problem I've had with this is the change playlist and change album functions, which seem to be a bit temperamental (then again i don't use playlists a lot). The remote does have some lag on it, as with any IR remote, but this is about 1/3 second, not really a problem. The remote volume changes the unit volume, not the iPod volume, and if you hold down the play/pause button on the remote - as with the iPod - the iPod will go to sleep.
I use this to play all my music through my hi-fi, and sometimes play video through the tv, it keeps my iPod charged up and I simply plonk it in when I get home and take it out when I leave. This is a great value dock and beats the official apple one on features, especially if you have a black iPod!
great budget dock and great price May 7, 2008

before i brought this dock i read a review here that said that when using the ipod 80gb classic with this logic 3 dock you could not sync, and the audio out function does not work, i went ahead and brought it anyway and i am glad i did, it fits perfectly with the ipod 80gb classic (using the dock adapter included with the ipod classic) it syncs fine in itunes, charges fine and the audio out function sounds great, if it makes any difference i am using the latest 1.1.1 firmware on my ipod classic so maybe a compatibility conflict was resolved in this latest update, i have yet to test to see if video out works with this dock but i have no interest in using that feature so i don't care if it doesn't work or not, i recommend anyone who is looking for a simple dock without the speakers and doesn't want to spend a small fortune on the official apple dock to buy this, you will be very satisfied with it 5* from me :D
better value than apple product April 20, 2007

i have an 80gb ipod and this works perfectly with it, looks good to, the remote does all the basic functions, if this was an apple product you could expect to pay 3 times the price, if apple sold cars wheels would come as optional extras.try return a faulty product to apple & see the grief you get. This non apple product is a gem.
