iPod Dock
The Ladybug includes an iPod universal dock, which is compatible with any iPod with a dock connector. It also charges your iPod while it's connected.

Ladybug Sound
Thanks to digital amplifier technology and a built-in subwoofer, this Ladybug has a bark and a bite, giving you full sound in a small package.

Ladybug Motion
Because the Ladybug can run on both AC (US only) or battery power (4 AA batteries not included), you can take it wherever you go. Rock out at the beach, at a picnic, wherever you want to take your tunes. Just throw your Ladybug in the included Tote bag and be on your way.

If you're forgetful, no worries--the battery-saving automatic shut-off will help you keep from draining those batteries. When you're at home, stay on the couch, and use the included remote for controlling your Ladybug.

Ladybug Versatility
If you have a bunch of different devices in addition to your iPod, use the auxiliary-in jack to connect them--non-docking iPods, CD players, MP3 players, and more. You also can send video to your TV from video-enabled iPods using the AV output for sharing your favorite clips or photos. Finally, use the USB connector for synchronizing a docked iPod with your computer.

What's in the Box
Vestalife Ladybug Portable Speaker Dock for iPod (Red/Black), AC adapter, remote control, five iPod dock adapters, audio patch cord, Tote bag, user guide, warranty card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very well worth the money!, December 5, 2008

I have this excellent product. I like it so much I take it back and fourth with me to work everyday. I grew up poor but happy and now that I am on my own, I like to make sure I am getting my moneys worth of anything I buy. This ipod dock may be small but don't underestimate its high quality and simple design because of its size!

I compose music and am acutely aware of the tonal frequencies when listening to my music in different speakers. These speakers are extremely high quality and have a surprisingly full spectrum of sound. The high end frequencies (5k-20k hrtz) are crisp and clear and the low end frequencies such as the bass (80-140) and even a minute portion of sub the bass (40-79) comes through very nicely. I was really surprised and just sat there looking at these little speakers in amazement the first time I plugged in my ipod.

The handy remote makes it so convenient while at work, I don't have to get up and go over to the cabinet across the room when I get a call or some one stops by my office. The remote also accesses menu options on your ipod! I can find a new play list, choose to shuffle or repeat with the remote!!! Sometimes during lunch when I am out at the coffee shop with free wifi, I drain my ipod battery by downloading new apps or movies. Plugging in my ipod to this dock charges it back up!

I have to admit, I did not have to purchase this because I won it as a bingo prize. Had I walked past this little thing in a store I would not have given it a chance but now owning it for a week now, I absolutely love it! It is worth the money they are charging on Amazon!
It is an extremely high quality product!

I may even add a video response for this product later...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Ipod Dock, December 8, 2008

For the price, this is a great little speaker system for your Ipod. I have the Ipod touch, and use this docking station in my baby's nursery to play him music at night, and fun music during the day. It puts out some serious sound for being so little. We will enjoy this for years! I like that we can take it with us, as it is very portable, and doesn't take up much space on the bookshelf. It's a cute little system, and very unique in style! We have the red and black one, and it does resemble a ladybug. Very cute!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sound from one-of-a-kind device, December 29, 2008

This review is from: Vestalife Ladybug Portable Speaker Dock for iPod (Red/Black) (Electronics)

I had no idea if this device would work with my 3G iPhone, but given the price, and cool design, I decided to give it a try. Upon opening the box, I found a card from Vestalife that says the Ladybug "uses the latest circuitry to make it compatible with your iPhone." The card also says that Vestalife recommends that one place the iPhone in Airplane Mode to prevent audio interference.

When I docked my iPhone, I got a pop-up message on the phone that informed me that the device (the Ladybug) is not compatible with the phone; the message allowed me to place the phone in Airplane Mode.

The sound the ladybug puts out is terrific! I couldn't want for a better sound from such a device. It's cute, it's cool, it's small, and it's portable. Other than the non-compatibility with my iPhone (which I really don't care about) I have no hang-ups about this device. I highly recommend it.

I bought the Ladybug at Costco for $86.99. I got the blue Element Skateboards special edition model; this model sells on Vestalife's web site for $125.
