    Does what it's supposed to.

    • Written by from Forest

    6 of 10 people found this useful

    I like the dock, it does everything it's supposed to do. It stands the iPad up nicely and charges it! The only thing I would have changed is I think it should at least come with another USB cord & or charger.. but I feel this way with all docks.

    Really? Doesnt work with the ipad case?

    I use my iPad everyday and still love it. I bought the case which again is very useful. Having to remove the case is not only a daunting task but totally out of line. Come on apple I expect the best and I usually get it. Fix-this

    Cant sync with the doc

    • Written by from Roseville

    4 of 6 people found this useful

    I can only intermittently sync my iPad while connected to doc. If I use just iPod cable it is fine. I am OK with the rest of the design. It is stable enough without being to big. Iphone fits in the dock as well which is a bonus.

    The dock is only soso for the iPad but when you use only usb bus power you can also use it as a stand for your iPod Touch. It will charge that one too.

    Stand alone dock with iPad only

    • Written by from East Hartford

    This dock is sturdy enough to hold the iPad comfortably without worry of tip over. It is great if you intend to use your iPad without a cover because by design you cannot slip the iPad into the dock with a cover on. The design fall short of taking iPad case into consideration. When dock i have to remove the Apple's Case. This is very inconvenience so i ended not using the dock at all. It is great to use as a photo slide but why would i spent $800+ for a Photo Slideshow! Overall, this is a good idea but failed to account for extra padding with a case on. I don't want to scratch the iPad so i always have the case on which ended up not using the dock at all. I give it a one star for poor design and price. If you wait long enough, you will get a better selection of dock from third parties.

    The stand does what it is meant to do. It holds the iPad, while charging it. It acts as a nice digital picture frame. We use it to charge our iPad overnight.

    Waste of Plastic!

    Honestly, this item is essentially useless. It wastes money, use of material, and time. They should just stop making them. Save the EARTH, don't make useless plastic junk!

    The perfect dock

    • Written by from Westlake

    13 of 24 people found this useful

    This product does exactly what it is supposed to, and does it well. The angle is perfect. I've used on both glass and wood surfaces, and the dock didn't slide around. Everyone who is complaining about having to take their iPad out of it's case are the same people who are mad that they have to plug their laptops in to charge them - that's how it works - get over it.

    Only NAKED iPads need apply

    • Written by from Toronto

    Very disappointed. Just picked one of these up and it will only hold and charge a naked iPad. Mine has the Apple cover on it and the iPad simply will not fit in the stand down enough to actually connect. Same goes for my iPhone 3GS, it will connect and charge fine but only when naked.

    Waste of money

    Your iPad wobbles if you put it in the dock. I guess Apple hate it when you protect your iPad with a case, because it doesn't work with a case around your iPad.

    I modded the dock with a dremel, so that it works well with my iPad + case.

    Great accessory!

    Definitely recommend this dock plus the Bluetooth keyboard over the keyboard dock to give you added flexibility and potability. Works great sitting next to your computer on your desktop or as a photo frame on your living room table. The only disappointment is that it does not support a landscape display. You can get pretty quick at putting on and removing the case, so it's not really an issue the iPad doesn't fit on the dock with the case on.

    Bought it. Never used it. Can't recommend it.

    Too limited for any real use. Portrait one means you can't use with a keyboard landscape-oriented programs. Requirement to remove iPad from case means I would only use this for aesthetic reasons and it isn't that attractive. Would recommend an ipad stand and the regular dock connector instead. Nice stand options in the Apple store or go to an office store and try out business card holders or look for a plate holder in a housewares store.

    Makes a good paper weight

    • Written by from Seattle

    9 of 17 people found this useful

    If your iPad is in an iPad case, this device is useless unless you want to wrestle the case off of your iPad first. I bought the dock without thinking about it, but since I have no intention of prying my iPad out of its case, the dock has been relegated to the status of paper weight. Don't waste your money.

    Perfect!

    • Written by from San Mateo

    This little dock is perfect, and does exactly what it's designed to do ... charge my iPad, when I'm not using it. It's not designed to be used as a cradle, allowing you to watch a movie, or type or anything else, but to charge the device, just like the iPhone dock does.

    For me, it keeps my iPad off the floor, so that I don't inadvertently step on it while it's plugged into the charger, and fits nicely on my desk.

    to the people who say its worthless if you have the case.

    Its not supposed!!!!!!!! ..... to because take the iphone for example its recommended not to us a case while charging to give good air flow so not to over heat it or damage the battery.

    You're not supposed to charge anything in a case because of the heat issue. Why would Apple make a product that ruined your iPad because it let you charge it in a case and it overheated? Thank you Apple for not letting me charge my iPad in a case and ruining it because I'm a dummy and I would try and charge it in a case.

    Very Slick And Great Performance

    Another great addition to the syncing process. Works very well samll enough if you are not using the dock to move it out of the way to make more room on your desk. Dont Worry about the reviews for syncing it with the cover on. If you want a great product look no further you found it.
