When I bought my i-pod I originally intended it for solely listening to in the gym, whilst walking to work or travelling etc. but eventually as I increased the size of my library I realised that I had in fact a better variety of music to hand as opposed to my CD collection. This is when i decided to purchase a docking station so that I could listen to my i-pod whilst at home as well as on the go. I came across the Logic3 i-station in white and black, I purchased the black as it was a perfect match for my i-pod. It cost me around £50 perhaps a little under.
Looks: The i-station is available in white or black, it is a smooth plastic construction with rounded edges rather than sharp corners. The bass folds upwards so that it can be transported around easily and prevents damage to the i-station. It has a docking port at the front which connects to the base of the ipod, the ipod can then be left free standing in the cradle. It has 4 buttons on the front and an infa red receiver as it comes complete with a remote control.
Features: The i-station can run off mains or battery power. It takes 4 AA batteries. Battery life depends on how loud you play the music, I find if you play your music constantly on the highest setting the batteries don't really last long. On the front it has four buttons (left to right) Power, volume up, volume down and 3D setting. It also comes complete with a remote control, this is small, flat and very light. Ideal to transport round but sometimes a bit easy to loose. On the remote control you can turn the station on and off, select the 3d function, skip through albums, repeat, shuffle, skip through playlists, skip through songs, pause and adjust the volume. The remote control takes one of the flat round lithium cell batteries (comes included). The sound quality of the i-station is very good even at high volumes, for such a small device it can be turned up to a considerably high volume.
My experience The i-station is very very useful and is just as good as a regular CD player. Its other advantage is that it charges your i-pod whilst it is docked so you're never caught short whilst you are out. It's also battery powered which means you can take it out of the house and use it. I took it on holiday this year and it proved very useful on the airport, round the pool and on the beach. Mine came with a foreign plug as well as an english so I could plug it in over in greece without the need for a travel adapter. The only problem i've had is i've found my ipod sometimes freezes whilst on the docking station but this is easy to rectify by removing the i-pod turning hold off and on and pressing menu and the middle button together until it resets.
Summary Worth every penny and I can honestly say I've used it every day since i bought it! I would recommend this to anyone with an ipod as it comes with a variety of dock adaptors to suit a variety of different i-pods.
Note. I have a 30gb Ipod video in black but have used it with an ipod nano also and had no problems
