Great
The reason that apple charge such a ridiculas price for something so small is basically because they have no competition that sells a similar device. That said, Apple make superb products. Look at the iPod and the iMac. Two great looking items that fulfill their purpose. The sound quality from the dock is unbelievable. I bought it so my ipod would not get scratched when I put it down, but I did not realise how different the sound from the headphone port to the dock is. Definitily worth the money if you listen to your iPod through your Hi Fi a lot like I do. I payed £19.99 for my brand new one on eBay.(Go have a look)

Handy, but expensive
This dock is quite useful as it means that you don't have to be continually plugging the USB2/firewire cable into the ipod, I always feel as if i'm going to damage something when I do that. If you use the dock, then one end of your USB2/firewire cable goes into the correct port on your PC and the other end goes into the dock. Thus, whenever you need to synch or recharge, you just drop the ipod into the dock. The dock also provides a line-out for connection to a stereo, which is useful because it's better quality than using the headphone jack.
However, £30 for a small unit that, when it comes down to it, isn't essential by any stretch of the imagination is quite simply a rip-off. My advice is, if you want one, then just buy the 40GB 4G ipod which comes with a dock included. It works out as much better value for money.

Pricy, but does it matter
Its a bit over the top on price, even if i did pay ten pound cheaper at my local electronics store for it. Its very stylish, and the sound quality from the line out is good, but is missing an amplifier. If the line out volume could be controlled, it would be a neat extra feature to compensate for the price
