IFA 2008: Fortune Technology's Sound Base G1 – surround sound for your laptop
Dan’s been taking a look at a laptop dock from Fortune Technology called the Sound Base G1. You sit your laptop on it, plug it in via USB, and then you get to enjoy surround sound with your music. Simple, and attractive. No word on when it’s out or how much it costs…

Sub-£50 iPod speaker-system-dock-thing from GEAR4 released, BlackBox 24/7
GEAR4 is on a roll of late, launching their fourth iPod docking system in the last month. The BlackBox 24/7, announced today, will join their first BlackBox product, with little discernible differences between the two.
Today’s product can dock, plus play from, your iPod, and has FM radio and an integrated alarm clock. As with most of these plastic boxes, it can wake you up with your choons, otherwise the radio or alarm buzzer. Getting…
harman/kardon Bridge II iPhone dock – handheld AV to your TV
You might look at the harman/kardon Bridge II and see another iPhone/Pod docking station and you’d be wrong – well, you’d be right but you’d be wrong too. Let’s say 60% right to 40% wrong and be done with it.
The 40% of interest here is because this sharp looking piece of kit can be plugged into your home entertainment system for both audio and video playback…
Philips doesn't mess about, with the DC185, DC910, DC570, DC200, DC1010 and BTM630 iPod docks
Philips may’ve announced the GoGear SA52 media player, but they still know iPod-friendly docking stations are a clear winner, unveiling four new products today.
With the DC185, DC910, DC570, DC200, DC1010 and BTM630, there’s something for all the dock fans.
Pictured, the DC910 charges as it plays, although I doubt it offers Arcam’s smart technology where it stops charging once the battery is full. If you don’t own an iPod, that’s fine by Philips, as they also have USB and SD card slots so you can play choons thattaway too…
Boston Acoustics introduces Duo-i – iPod dock with AM/FM radio
Boston Acoustics is taking its first step into the crowded iPod dock market, hoping to catch the eye with the Duo-i…
Should Sony be launching the ICF-ClipMK2 iPhone clock radio dock? Anyone?
Well now, this is a conflict of interest if ever I saw one. Why is Sony, who has a successful Sony Ericsson handset range, and (ok, a not-so-successful) Sony Walkman range, making an iPhone clock radio dock? Have they wired it so that the iPhone will explode once docked in the device, so users will be forced to buy Sony products to replace the iPhone?
It’s not just the concept which is strange – the model name, ICF-ClipMK2 isn’t particularly easy to rattle off the tongue, either. Still,…
Krell's KID – "the world's best-sounding iPod dock", also the most expensive
When something’s touted as “the world’s best-sounding iPod dock”, it honestly makes me want to get a sledgehammer to my monitor and tear up the words. But, nonetheless, the sad fact is most people have iPods now, and they’re all wanting docks to pop them into. So here are some details about Krell’s KID dock.
To achieve that ‘best-sounding iPod dock’ claim, Krell has stolen some “audiophile grade” components and stuck them in the KID shell, along…
JVC boggles the mind with their dual iPod speaker dock, the NX-PN7
Honestly, I love JVC, but this product makes me think they’ve gone a bit cuckoo in the conception department!
I can understand that the average household has more than one iPod now, with both parties wanting to charge their ‘pods overnight and have equal play-time with the speakers. However, I just can’t get to grips with the NX-PN7…
