2.0 out of 5 stars Great for very small music collections, November 7, 2007

By	James R. Risk Jr. "Who is John Galt?" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had been eyeing the Keyspan Tuneview for months, but decided to hold out for another system. When DLO released this device I decided to pull the trigger. After purchasing it and getting everything hooked up (which was easy), I could not get the iPod to synch with HomeDock. After trying every trouble shooting tip in the manual and trying a few of my own, I decided to email DLO to find out if I just had a defective system. Turns out you can only synch upto 50 playlists and 200 artists. I exceeded the artists by about 3X. I do appreciate DLO getting back to me so I could return the system. Hopefully they will increase the memory very soon. I decided to write a review so others understand the limitations... and DLO decides to improve their product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Capacity Limit, October 31, 2007

By	SteveF (Abu Dhabi, UAE) - See all my reviews

In theory this is a fantastic device, and for those with low capacity iPods or small music collections it works as advertised, but if like me you have a 60GB or larger ipod that is almost full you will almost certainly be affected by the device's limit of 50 playlists and 200 artists.
As far as i can see this information is not documented on DLO's website (the FAQs state that you can "Browse and select your entire iPod music library from up to 150 feet away on the compact Music Remote") or in the user manual and it took an email to DLO's customer service to find this out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool little product., October 3, 2007

By	Andreole - See all my reviews

After digitizing my 150+ lp collection begun in the late '60's and ripping all my CDs, I placed all my music of the past 40+ years onto an 80GB "Classic" i-pod. With the i-pod in the DLO dock, I now have complete access to all that music from anywhere in my house played through my home stereo system. The unit installed quickly and without problems. The initial transfer of data from the i-pod to the remote took only a few minutes. The remote works at considerable distance. It is actually smaller than I had expected. The OLED screen is really nice and bright. Battery life is excellent. On the downside, many functions require one click more than intuitively you think they should and it is a shame that only songs by artist are provided. You can't select songs by album. Those things aside, this is a cool device offering a much-needed viewscreen to the remote, a feature lacking from most remotes for i-pod docking stations.
