The Zune dock elegantly displays your Microsoft Zune media player anywhere in your home or office for easily customizable media access. The dock features a pair of built-in outputs for maximum versatility: a connector port for syncing and charging your Zune, and an audio/video output with a built-in audio amplifier. The connector port is a handy option for people who want to sync or charge their Zune without fumbling under the desk for the sync cable, as the cable instead plugs right into the dock. The A/V port, meanwhile, lets you connect the dock to a stereo system or TV for full-featured playback. In both cases, all you have to do is drop your Zune into the dock and it will charge, sync, or playback via the connected devices--no extra connections required. Plus, the dock includes an integrated IR receiver for use with the Zune wireless remote (sold separately). The IR receiver and remote give you quick access to your current playlist, as well as full control over menu navigation and volume. The dock even includes a small built-in slot that holds the remote--a convenient and stylish way to store the remote when not in use. As with all Zune accessories, the dock is backed by a 1-year warranty.

The Zune dock elegantly displays your Zune device anywhere you go.

The dock also has an integrated slot to hold the wireless remote.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decorative hockey puck, December 31, 2006

By	Clement A. Gollier "Clay Gollier" (Mansfield, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Zune Dock (Electronics)

I received this item as a gift and, out of the box, it is little more than a sleek decorative puck. In other words, the dock does not include *any* cables, not even the Zune sync cable. Oh, it will hold the Zune upright though. It will also hold the Zune remote (sold *separately*.)

Once I collected the cables I needed (sync, plus either A/V or 3.5 to 3.5) the dock is working fine. I have nothing against the product, I just wish it came with at least the basic accessories out of the box.

5.0 out of 5 stars In-car use, September 19, 2007

By	visual-j (Princeton, NJ) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Zune Dock (Electronics)

I bought this dock with the intention of using it my car as a drop-in interface for my Zune. I used a couple of strips of 3M Dual-Lock (much stronger alternative to Velcro) to mount it on my dashboard. I was concerned at first about the Zune flying out of the socket when going around turns or over bumps, but it's been well over a month and the thing never budges!

For the price of the dock, you can't beat the value and convenience for use in a car install!

4.0 out of 5 stars Does work with 80gb Zune, April 9, 2009

When you get the docking station, you will notice a small slit on the inside wall of the remote slot. Slip a knife or screwdriver into the slot slightly and pull up. The mirror cover pops off. Underneath it is solid black so it doesn't look like you took it apart. Without the cover, the Zune slot is big enough to fit the 80gb Zune perfectly.
