Great Addition! [Posted on 2007-01-09] Like all things Apple this was a breeze to hook up and use. The remote works well, being able to keep the Ipod charged up while its sitting in the cradle is a definite plus. Wish I hadn't waited so long to buy this.
Great kit [Posted on 2007-03-12] This thing come with everything you need to connect your ipod the craddle is great, i have connected to the TV and Stereo system. all teh other cables work great too.
Well, at least I got GREAT packaging for my eighty bucks ...... [Posted on 2007-08-11] I love the sleek and snazzy box and packaging this connection kit came in: I have it proudly displayed on my sound system shelf and it matches & blends so wonderfully with my components. Same with the pretty, white cables (color-coded, too!!!) that came with this kit: they're also proudly displayed alongside the fancy box.
As far as the actual connection parts and remote that CAME IN THIS BOX, well, I don't use them, because they make life difficult for me: poor video, so-so sound, and useless remote functions. But hey, isn't there always throwaway junk in most packagings? with this kit it just happens to be the APPLE-DESIGNED CONTENTS !
But not to worry: I LOVE the beautiful, well-made, understated-design of the packaging SO MUCH that I decided to keep the purchase and just be glad that it wasn't as expensive as my actual iPod, which ALSO came with killer packaging & box.
At least there are still other companies out there with products that provide decent value for the money and fill in all the many shortcomings of these iPods.
Make sure your ipod is supported [Posted on 2007-11-29] I recently purchased an ipod touch and wanted the dock kit to connect it to my home theater system. I also purchased the component cable in hopes of getting a better picture. The dock in this kit does not work with the ipod touch and the component cable I bought separately. No audio or video would play when the component cable was connected to the dock and the ipod in the cradle. I did get audio and video when the touch was connected directly to the component cable. Make sure you have one of the specific ipods on the box for this kit.
Even if I did have a supported ipod, I might have returned this kit because the component cable by itself connects to the home theater system and charges the ipod with the included AC adapter. The only thing it doesn't do is stand up the ipod. With the new ipod touch and iphone, it doesn't seem like this dock is "universal" anymore.
Returned it twice since neither worked [Posted on 2008-05-12] My husband bought this for me yesterday as a gift and had to return it the same day because it didn't work. Video wouldn't work and the remote didn't work at all. The second one wasn't much better. The remote worked somewhat (not that we really need it, but still) and it did play music through the TV, but still no video. That one is getting returned tomorrow. Very disappointing.
