This is just not needed for your Ipod...there are so many other great docking items out there such as speakers,alarm clocks etc we have never used it! It was a waste of money!Customer Review: Thanks for nothing Apple

I should have know that Apple will try to nickel and dime you for EVERYTHING! They must think that if they are locking you into a single computer for iTunes, that you won't need to carry the cable around that they give you with the iPod. I can't believe that they charge $30 for a base and then want you to spend another $20-$30 for another cable to carry around. I won't be buying ANY accessories from Apple again. I will be supporting other vendors's products. Why not throw in a $2 cable & charge $35 for the package. Think of all the ill will that is generated by the surprise need to go out and get a cable. I do hate the evil empire of MS but Apple is becoming just as evil. The only difference is Apple has the "cool" factor going for it. Don't buy this product. Buy something similar from an outside vendor that throws in a cable - probably at a cheaper price.Customer Review: It Won't Fit - Here's How to Fix it

It's crazy that it doesn't fit the new nanos, isn't it?! I put in my metallic green 4G and the width of the opening is about 2 millimeters to short! I thought, "Let's see if this thing can stand a little plastic surgery." I bought my husband one of those Dremel drilling tools for Christmas last year, and it works like a charm to drill out the excess plastic. At first there was a small ridge that was making my iPod connect and then disconnect from iTunes - that puppy has got to be completely flush. So he took it the Dremel tool to it again, and it works just like it should! Of course, I'm betting the one-year warranty on the dock is now void, hehe.Customer Review: Caveat Emptor!

I got this as a Christmas gift today. I was excited at first, but I'm afraid that I'll have to concur with the other bad reviews here. That hurts, because generally I'm an Apple fan. But my new aluminum Nano just barely doesn't fit, and though "surgery" may work, I'm not going to fix something that ought to work correctly in the first place. Yes, it says "1st Generation," but the buyer has to be pretty alert to realize that the new ones are very, very, slightly the wrong size to use this. And the lack of a power supply cord is galling. Apple gets a lot right, but they dropped the ball completely on this one.Customer Review: Not very useful

I don't find this to be that useful. The only benefit is that it holds the iPod upright (it has a line out feature, but that's not why I purchased it and I won't use that). I assumed (incorrectly) that it came with it's own power cord, so that it would, by itself, charge the iPod. You must purchase a separate plug or use the USB jack that it came with. I wanted an addition means of charging the nano. Had I known that it was just a base, I wouldn't have purchased this item, certainly not for $30. For me, the utility of this isn't worth more than a few bucks, and I'm not exactly the miser type.
