Poor Quality badly made

Advantages: you can charge and sync your ipod

Ipod shuffle docking usb station: This is for the tiny little sexy Ipod shuffle the USB cable with integrated Dock is a perfect little seat to pop your iPod for a quick charge or a change of tunes With its long cable you don’t have to keep reaching in behind your pc tower to plug it into the usb when you need to use it. You will obviously need a pc to charge your iPod with this but there is also a Mains charge available (bought separately) Unfortunately ...
...which goes into the iPod is very easily broken, a slight knock to the connector and its damaged and you will need to buy a new one. These are very pricey considering the price of the ipod which comes with a docking station is only around £50 I wouldn’t recommend buying the original Ipod shuffle docking station but shop around for a cheaper more sturdier alternative ...

Review of Apple iPod Shuffle Dock MP3 player docking station

Protect that Nano!! Somewhat?

Advantages: Protects from drops and dents
Disadvantages: Causes scratches when dirt gets under the case

Hello and welcome to this review! Now my iPod.... one of my most cherished items in my life.. Well there are a lot more better things in my life but Hey! I don't want to smash something that costs so much. So that was when I decided, I needed a case. My iPod Nano ( which I am yet to review! ) was starting to show signs of wearing after only two weeks of use. It was time to do something about it. Searching our local Tesco when I put my hand into the ...
...a lovely big tag stating the price which was a low £5.99 for three coloured iPod Nano cases, I had to have them! I noticed they were nicely packaged on my walk to the checkout, however they were packaged in that really annoying all plastic heat sealed stuff that really annoys me! I always cut myself on that, wish they could go back to the old cardboard boxes. On the package was a sticker stating what these miracle cases do for your iPod, prevents ...

Review of XtremeMac TuffWrap For iPod nano Case MP3 Player

A cheap and cheerful solution lacking in quality

Advantages: An easy and very cheap solution
Disadvantages: Poor quality, poor sound quality, dated technology

...product, so I purchased the Belkin tape solution in the first instance. ****Compatibility**** The Belkin cassette adaptor works with all I-Pods, regardless of the type, be it nano, shuffle, classic or touch. It can also be used with all other MP3 players, including those that a basically a flash drive. In fact, this product is compatible with all music players with a headphone socket. ****Installation**** Simply plug the cassette adaptor in ...
...****Price and availability**** The Belkin cassette adaptor cost £12.10 from ebuyer.com, although it is available from many other places. Before buying I would recommend carrying out an internet search as you could probably find a good deal. ****Conclusion**** Whilst reasonably cheap this product, in my opinion, is not worth buying as it does not represent value for money. The I-Pod has great sound quality, even through its headphones, and by ...

Review of Belkin Components Car cassette adapter Colour: White

Save your Touch from scratches

Advantages: Works, cheap
Disadvantages: Headphone socket may be covered

...ones at over £200. The Belkin was on Amazon at only £4.99, though had apparently been on sale at closer to £20. I thought it was worth a go as I was going to have to buy without seeing it in the flesh, and fiver seemed worth a punt. The case is leather, and comes in black or brown [mine is brown]. It's mainly plain leather, though there is a hexagonal pattern on the bottom quarter of the front. The cover is kept shut by a Velcro fastening and the ...
...has been around since the iPod Touch was introduced in version 1; mine is version 2 but it fits fine. There are gaps at the bottom to plug in the USB cable and for the headphone socket [this on is almost covered by part of the case, but is usable]. At the top of the case you can access the on/off switch, and you can also use the volume controls [though not when the case is shut]. In the pack there is also a screen protector. I missed this at first, ...

Review of Belkin Leather Folio Case For iPod touch Case MP3 player

Nano docks can now be found inexpensively

Advantages: Good industrial design, holds nano neatly, can be found inexpensively
Disadvantages: No Infra red, will not fit in dock with case

The Apple Nano dock is a very simple device that allows the user to plug their iPod nano (1st generation only) into the computer/charger and hold the Nano upright by pushing it into a docking cradle. The dock does not come with any cables and if a charger is required it must be purchased separately. The dock also has a 3.5" minijack which is useful if the user wants to plug the Nano into speakers or a stereo in a convenient and attractive manor. ...
...infra red port, so you can not remotely control the functions of the Nano while it is in the dock. Since the 1st generation Nano has been out of production for around two years, high street stores have been offering this item on clearance and I was able to find it for £1. At a low price like this it is well worth the money, but if you have to pay anywhere close to list price, it really is not worth having an easier way to plug in and unplug your ...
