SendStation PocketDock

The SendStation PocketDock is able to soothe any raging beast who thinks that the proprietary dock connector found in the entire iPod line is a curse to humanity in general, as this device lets you synchronize and charge using the miniUSB port, which is more or less the accepted standard at this point in time. This extremely small PocketDock will share a similar footprint as that of the iPod plug from Apple, featuring a 3.5mm jack to keep the miniUSB port company. The former lets you bypass the volume board utilized by the headphone jack, resulting in clearer sound quality that is somewhat similar to a dock. You might want to pick up this $30 device if you happen to dabble with a whole lot of miniUSB gadgets.
