3 Stars new iphone case review
the quality of the case was good but it didnt have an opening slot for

the side bar volume buttons and on/off/button at the very top of the case

if it had that i would have given it 5 stars.

5 Stars Excellent product
I bought them in red, black and while and I am really happy the way the fit and look. Took a little long to arrive, other than that it’s great.

4 Stars Its a keeper
This little case is perfect as it has a very small envelope and protects to anyone’s expectation.

5 Stars Love it!
Bought two of these (black and red). They both look great and don’t bulk up the phone too much.

4 Stars Good case for a great price
I got exactly what I ordered – a good-looking, functional, slim case. Minus one star for the case wrapping around too far and lifting the screen but only minus one star because it was a cinch to fix (scrape or lightly file down the part that is lifting the screen).

2 Stars Does not fit as well as other cases I’ve tried
Maybe it’s just a defective case that I received, but it does not stick to the iPhone 3G like a glove when compared to the Elago, Gogo and Shield cases that I’ve tried. I also don’t like the feel of it as much as the aforementioned brands. Not that bad … but not as good as three other distinct brands, IMO.

5 Stars Excellent
Excellent product. Fits my phone nicely and doesn’t cause operating issues like other covers I’ve had. Doesn’t add any volume to my phone which is nice and it also doesn’t stick to the inside of my purse or jeans. Silver color is perfect and the little cutout in the back for the apple sign is a nice added feature. Love it!!

4 Stars Works Well For iPhone, but Lacks Button
I like the fit and the quality of the sound. The only minor downside to the unit is that it does not have a button to answer/hang up/pause song and there is no audio feedback through the headset when you are on the phone. I paid less than $40 so I think I still got a good deal since the quality of the sound and noise isolation is very good. The cord is little thicker than most, but I hope that will make it last long since I am hard on headsets since I use them all the time on my motorcycle, mountain bike, and just out for a walk. The cords loop over the ear and stay there most of the time. The headset connects to the phone with a right angle connector and is heavy duty in design. I would recommend these to any iPhone user as long as they are not use to using the pause button like on the Apple and most of the other headsets, but have a great sound for the price.

4 Stars a bit heavy
good sound quality..good mic. The unit is a bit heavy in the ear, but a fine headset

3 Stars Beware: No Answer/Off Click Button
These sound pretty good, but they’re missing my favorite feature of the stock iPhone earbuds – the click button on the cord that allows you to pause the iPod and answer a call without touching the phone. I guess this is what “iPhone compatible” means.

These also require the cord to wrap around the top of your ear, which is slightly uncomfortable after a while.

4 Stars Great set for wind noise
I own a convertible, and have tried about a dozen wired and wireless headsets over the last three or four months looking for one that I can use with my top down. I have tried the Z9, the Z9i, both jawbones, and a few less commonly known sets. This set is by far the best for dealing with wind noise. It puts the mic inside a tube a few inches down from the right earpiece, which seems to create a windless cavity for the mic. It is by no means perfect, but it is pretty darned good. There are some issues with how the earpieces fit in the ear. The set is designed to have the wires loop over the tops of each ear and around the back side. The headset comes with three different sizes of earplugs though, and I find it works better for me to use the next size up of plugs so they fit snugly, and then let the wires hang down like most other headsets do.

3 Stars Agree with the other “average” ratings
The sound quality is really quite good. But the heavy duty cord, bulky mic, and oddly shaped & unbalanced speaker housings lead to my earbuds constantly falling out of my ears. Probably a great set if you are going to use them while just sitting at your desk – but if you want a pair of headphones you can use while you know – walk around – these aren’t the pair.

Dock Cradle for iPhone 3G iPod Touch 2nd Gen with AV out and AC

This premium construcion dock station specifically made for latest generation Apple iPhone including, but not limited to: Apple iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 2nd Generation, and Nano 4th Generation The new design includes the AV out for iPhone that can be used with the new Apple 30-pin AV cable to watch videos from your iPhone to TV. Works with all older versions of iPod too – the new AV out is only needed for the latest generation Apple iPhone 3G(iPod Classic, iPod Nano 3G, iPod Touch, Touch 2nd Gen, and Nano 4th Gen) that require you to use 30-pin Apple AV cable. The dock station also includes a 3.5mm AV out that can be used with older generation iPods for A/V out, or for connecting your headphone/earphone to all iPod/iPhone models. This is a must have accessory if you are looking to watch video from new generation iPods to your TV (please note that you will need to have the Apple 30-pin AV cable to connect this unit to your TV).

5 Stars Good stand
If you need A/V, then think of this as just a stand, not a dock, and you’ll need an iPod A/V cable. For example, I purchased this with Griffin Component Video Cable for iPod and iPhone, which plugs into the back of this “stand” and allows me to hook it up an iPhone 3g to a TV (note that the cable is not made for iPhone 3g so it does display that annoying error every time it gets plugged in).

4 Stars Not Perfect – But Quite Useful
This device falls down on the headphone AV output jack, but has other features that are easily, to me, worth the money.

You get all these features for your 3G iPhone:

- a universal iPod cradle

- an extra AC power adapter

- an extra USB cable that can sync your device, recharge it, or both

- 30 pin AV output that you can use to play good quality videos on your TV (once you purchase the special AV cable from Apple)

You do NOT get:

- usable headphone audio output from the cradle for your 3G iPhone. On my unit, the audio plays thru the headphone and the iPhone speaker at the same time. Not very useful.

If you must have the headphone output, you’ll be disappointed.

If all you need is an extra AC power adapter, a decent cradle with sync/power cable, and video output capability, then you’ll be very happy with this product, as I am.

1 Star No Audio Out
This device has an audio output on a phono jack, but it just plain doesn’t work. This is anything but clear from the language “The dock station also includes a 3.5mm AV out that can be used with older generation iPods for A/V out, or for connecting your headphone/earphone to all iPod/iPhone models.”

A better description would have saved me a purchase and return.

2 Stars Allows Synch but does not allow audio output via AV Out
I purchased this dock to allow me to (1) power my iphone off of the USB cable on my employer’s laptop and (2) allow me to play audio via external speakers directly connected to the dock. While this dock does allow me to power (and synch) my iphone, it does not allow me to output the audio via the “AV Out” jack provided on the dock. While I can still hear the audio via the iPhone’s small speaker or output audio via the iPhone’s av/out jack, both of these options defeat the purpose of the dock. I am returning the dock, hopefully, for a refund.

5 Stars you can’t beat this product in this price range
This dock is amazing since for only $12 you get both the dock and the miniUSB cable(beat that, Apple!). It’s great to have the AV out and audio out on the dock as well – usually you have to pay more for a dock to have these features. Audio out is really useful if you like to play music form your iphone via PC speakers like I do. Adapters for various devices are included. Dock looks great with my black iPhone3G – don’t know how it would work with the white one.

The only thing I wish for is a sharper tilt angle when the phone is on the dock so the phone would “face me” more. But I fix this by moving the dock further away from me.
