Question: Does this have built in speaker and volume control
Document: I am not tough on Electronics and buy most of my stuff refurbished because material pricing has gotten out of control and this is Griffin dock is just another pretty over priced gizmo with zero durability.
This is a wonderfully designed dock. Looks great, works great, built solid. The one drawback is that it will NOT charge your phone when the computer is off. Even if the extra power supply is connected, it doesn't charge your phone.
Saves a lot of space on my desk. It's a powered USB hub, card reader, and iPod dock all in one. The only negative is the built quality. It needs to be a little heavier, and the plastic parts mounted in the metal shell tend to shift around when you plug things in. Does not effect it's use.
The dock itself looks nice and functions well. If you have a MacBook Pro be warned, at least on the 15in MBP without the SD slot (late 2008 early 2009 model) the USB ports on the computer do not play nice with any USB hub including the one built into this docking device.
This is the perfect companion to a computer (especially a Mac) that doesn't have a built-in memory card reader. The reader functions beautifully, and the iPod dock works like a charm. I haven't tried out the USB dock, so I don't want to pass judgement on it. This is a great looking device that does its job perfectly, and was a great deal on top of it all ($43 vs. $69 at the Apple Store).
This is an awesome iPod/iPhone accessory for all the reasons everyone has listed. Another great feature I like about the charge/sync dock is that the docking bay is slightly larger than many other models and can accomodate the iPhone without removing whichever case you choose to use. I use the Griffin iClear case (includes a built-in stand) and my wife uses the iFrogz Wrapz. Both iPhone 3GS units with cases fit into the dock without having to use any of the adapters.
The Simpli-fi dock works great and really helped me get control the nest if USB cables connected to my laptop. Now I only connect one USB cable to get my iPod Touch, external hard drive, and Wacum tablet connected. I have found that connecting a USB Hub to the back of the devices doesn't support all devices.
you can see where the docking cradle does not match exactly to the hole in the top of the metal frame and there are slight inconsistent spaces between the plastic and the metal. Not horrible, but not exacting quality standards either. The rattling makes me wonder if that is normal or if something has come loose on the inside that will eventually cause the unit to malfunction.
this was an awesome idea for a product to take multiple plugs/components and put into an all-in-one device.Love reducing desk clutter.Mine broke and lost a stable connection and would eject cards and ipods/iphones at any given moment...meaning I'd get an error pop-up.Since Lightning is the new connector....I will move on.
this thing worked great when I first got it, but after some time I had intermittent connections with USB devices, and the iPhone itself will no longer stay in a charging status or be docked to since. Im still using it, but I have to rely on other sources for charging cause it will stay its charging but then at some point shortly afterwards it stops and you never know. and in the morning you have a dead phone.
