Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Apple iPod Universal Dock serves as a convenient and elegant home base for charging, syncing and more.

The Universal Dock is the ultimate iPod docking solution. Any model of iPod with a dock connector can fit perfectly into a single Universal Dock through the use of interchangeable inserts called Dock Adapters. You simply insert the Dock Adapter that fits your particular iPod model, then plug in your iPod. The iPod Universal Dock package includes adapters for five iPods. New iPods that are released will include adapters for that model, and other adapters are available separately.

3.0 out of 5 stars Expensive Adapter without the Apple Magic, November 18, 2007

This review is from: Apple Universal Dock for iPod (White) (Electronics)
The basics work with iPod 5G and the Nano 3G, but this dock doesn't have that "just works" magic we have come to expect from Apple. For starters it comes with nothing meaning you still have to buy a power adapter and in my case an iPod cable which can be as much as the dock if you buy Apple original. You can use the IR remote that comes with your Mac. Don't waste money buying a remote specially for this because it only activates the iPod's play/pause and volume adjustment. The MENU button on the remote doesn't activate the MENU button on my iPods, so I can't scroll songs or albums. Apple, you could have let us do that fairly easily.

Because of the diminutive size of the new Nano, the scroll wheel sits low in this dock making it almost impossible to scroll. (This wouldn't be so bad if I could use the remote instead)

I bought this because I needed something to hold and charge my iPod while connecting to my stereo. There aren't a lot of choices out there so I'm stuck paying a premium price for what is essentially a simple adapter stand that turns the iPod socket 90 degrees, and separates mini headphone and S-Video out. If I'm not mistaken, docks came free with the first iPods. I don't think we will return to those days, but Apple needs to come out with a new dock design that addresses these shortcomings.

5.0 out of 5 stars i was dock skeptical at first, March 26, 2007

This review is from: Apple Universal Dock for iPod (White) (Electronics)
...but then I bought one in a Zoom vending machine at an airport. Aside from the idea of being able to use it to hook my iPod up to a TV or stereo, I'm surprised at how much I like it.
I bought this one and sent it to my mom, when she told me her arthritis, made it hard to unhook the iPod from the USB wire. I knew immediately that this dock would make her iPod life easier. She too, loves the dock as much as the iPod. It's great for her to be able to just slip the iPod on and off to be charged. For me, hearing from her, how easy it was, made the price well worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but lacks a power adapter, December 26, 2007

The product works well. Be aware that it does not come with a power adapter or any cords, thus these will need to be purchased as well.
