(More customer reviews)The one big attraction for this item is that it has SO many helpful gadgets, even ones you may not even have known you wanted! I bought it for the wall charger and car charger but am loving every single thing it came with! Here's the list:
- a dock for charging/storing your iPod
- a wall charger so you don't have to turn your computer on, pull iTunes up, and turn off your 'puter's sleep mode simply to charge your iPod
- a car charger
- an earbud splitter (to plug in two sets of earbuds/headphones so more than one person can listen)
- a double-ended USB cable (a USB port at each end)
- an extra USB cable with the flat dock-connector port (the kind that comes with any non-shuffle iPod)
- an RCA cable for hooking up to a stereo
Let's start with the dock. It has a rubber bottom so it doesn't slide around and is somewhat weighted so there is no risk of tipping over when your iPod is sitting in it. It seems pretty solid, but it does allow my iPod (I have a 6G 80GB Classic) to wiggle a bit in it. So far it hasn't come away from the dock port enough to interfere with the charging but it's not 100% stable in the dock. The USB cable is also able to wiggle a bit in the port as well and is easy to pull out, but all in all, it works for me. If it's just sitting there and not being messed with, everything stays in place fine.
The wall charger: awesome. Connect the wall charger box and the charging dock using the double-ended USB cable, then connect the iPod to the dock using the USB/flat dock port cable - and voila! (It's easier than it sounds.) I love not having to fire up my laptop just to charge my 'Pod!!
Car charger: sweet. Works just like any car charger. Requires the USB/flat dock cable. Convenient. I keep mine in the glove box with my DS and cell phone chargers.
Earbud splitter: Super sweet!! How many times have you shared headphones (or someone else's earbud - yechh!) to listen in on one iPod together? Well, I have. This thing is awesome and I honestly never even thought that such a thing existed. I love it! Very solid construction on this piece.
The additional cables are a lifesaver. They are required for using all the items that come in this box and it's not a bad idea to have them as spares anyway, even if you don't use these extras often.
Overall, I am impressed with what was included and the quality is average if not better. It has everything I never knew I always wanted. :)
