Not Much to Say [Posted on 2007-10-19] I can't really say much about the dock other than it's good to have on hand in case you've lost the original one that came with your iPod. Although I'm sure there has to be a better way to replace it.
Good item, terrible price [Posted on 2007-10-31] i think the dock has some good item quality, but the price is insane...come on. There is a item out there that is $5.oo and you don't need any cords. It connects the Shuffle straight into the computer from the usb without and necessary cords!
Apple iPod Shuffle Dock - Works but Overpriced [Posted on 2007-11-17] The replacement dock provided by Apple for the Shuffle is as overpriced as the Shuffle is. This product does work, but there are alternatives ranging from 40 cents to $5 that will do the same job.
This fills a product need created by Apple. If this was made better the Docks wouldn't break so easily. Normal USB adapters should have been included with the product instead of the mini-doc, or at least backup cables. A standard USB port connection could also have been used.
Check out the alternatives which are much more reasonably priced.

Having a backup dock or adapter is a must for your iPod shuffle. It just doesn't make sense to buy this replacement from Apple.
Good luck!
works but.. [Posted on 2008-01-07] Not the same quality as the original by a long shot. Do not like the fact that the plastic is colored blue - that was not in the description. It works though, and is a less expensive alternative to the original.
Shuffle Dock [Posted on 2008-01-19] This is the third or fourth dock we have purchased in less than a year. They are not built very sturdy at all, and the pin coming up gets bent or broken easily. The shuffle is nice, though.
