5.0 out of 5 stars More for less, September 1, 2005

I agree with the other reviews. With Apple's dock you get, well, just a dock. OK you get two inserts. With this Maxell dock you get both USB and Firewire cables, the power adapter, a line out cord, and three inserts. One other bonus is that the inserts are wider than Apple's so I don't need to remove my cover to dock it.

The only negative is that the line out doesn't seem to support the video connection for the iPod photo.

I just rec'd the dock and got it hooked up, seems to work just as well as the Apple dock I have, with a ton more flexibility and a better price. Initial impressions are 5 stars all around, I'm giving it a 4 because it's a new product with no durability track record. I can tell you that if it holds up I will definately be picking up additional Maxell accessories!

5.0 out of 5 stars Do Yourself a Favor, August 19, 2005

Do yourself a favor...don't spend the bucks for Apple's iPod dock when you get more for less money with the Maxell P-3. If you need the cool white color, this dock has it. If your are worried about whether or not your iPod will fit, the dock comes with inserts for different sizes, up to 60 GB. I even put my 4th generation 20 GB iPod, which has a skin on it, in my charger. Need cables? The Maxell dock has everything you need. You can connect to speakers or your Mac/PC from the dock. And, yes, the P-3 really does charge. Unless you absolutely must have fruit on your iPod dock, go with the Maxell P-3.
