Great Product for iPod Line Out Capability & USB Connectivity

I bought this product directly from Sendstation to use with my 5G iPod Video when I connect it to my headphone amplifier or my car stereo auxiliary input. Using the line out audio jack on the PocketDock significantly improves the audio quality in both situations in comparison to using the headphone jack on the iPod directly, as it's best to use a clean unamplified signal when connecting to a better amplifier system. Another result is that I can run my stereo equipment at a lower volume level to get a very powerful and clean sound. I would imagine that since you're no longer using the iPod's internal amp circuitry that you are saving its battery life as well.

Although I didn't get this product for this purpose, the USB connection can come quite handy. I chose the USB version over the Firewire since iTunes no longer supports syncing the 5G iPod via Firewire.

I virtually have no complaints and in comparison to other reviews I have had no problems with the PockedDock becoming easily unlocked from the iPod. In addition, the line out of the PocketDock holds 3.5mm plugs very securely.

Excellent for my needs

I purchased this item for connection to my home stereo & boombox, both of which have aux inputs. The sound is clean, and the connection at the iPod stays in just fine. The connection at the ipod could be improved with a locking mechanism similar to the USB cable that comes with the iPod from the factory. Otherwise everything is of excellent quality and design.

Actual Customer Service

Four stars for the product and an extra star for customer service. I had a question about the USB connection on the dock (it's a USB-B, not a USB-A), and I sent an email to SendStation. I got a helpful response within a couple of hours that answered my questions. Follow-up e-mails were also prompt and friendly. So many vendors don't bother to respond to e-mails anymore that it was a very pleasant surprise to get a quick and useful reply. As for the product, as others have pointed out, the connector is thicker than normal and it doesn't lock. It works OK with my Griffin hardshell 160gb IPod case, but I would prefer a more secure connection. The cables included with the package are fine. I do notice a definite difference in sound quality between the dock and the headphone jack, with both car and home stereos.Try it if you are interested in getting the best possible sound with these sources. For the car, I combined it with a ProClip bracket and holder - they make a nice combination.

Handy product

Simple, functional. Pricing seems a bit high, but I don't think anyone is getting rich on this kind of stuff (or are they? :-)

Give your iPod or iPhone audio-out and USB connections with a simple dock that can fit in your pocket. Whether you need to connect your player to the home stereo or your computer, the PocketDock conveniently provides both connections. Includes RCA and 3.5mm audio connection cables. Requires USB type 'A' male to USB type 'B' male cable, sold separately.
