Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base for 2 iPod or iPhone Models
A decent product.
Written by JR from MUNSTER

I was looking to just buy a regular dock for my new Ipod Classic, and then I saw this. I deceided to get it for my iphone and ipo…Read mored since it was a good way to clean up the clutter on my desk. It looks great and does a good job of charging the devices. The only problem that I have with it is that it's JUST a charger, you have to remove the ipod and plug it in to your computer to actually sync it. Which is kind of a hassle to me, and for the price, I don't really think it's worth it.

Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base for 2 iPod or iPhone Models
Great idea, but doesn't work consistently......
Written by CH from Rancho Cordova

I did learn after my purchase that I needed adapter(s) for our iphone 3G's. You'd think Griffin would be sure that it was possible…Read more to charge 2 of the same device. The adapters can't cost more than 10 cents apiece.
My wife and I both have iphone 3g. The charger has only worked twice since my purchase and that was without an adapter. Also it will not work with any phone covers or cases.
Make sure you can get all adapters you need or skip this device all together and continue with the usual charger from apple that comes with the phone.(34 of 38 people found this review useful)

Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base for 2 iPod or iPhone Models
Cannot charge two same devices out of the box...needs extra adapters $$$
Written by JU from Stockton

I completely agree with MB from Seattle's review.
The device is nicely designed, but its sheen is cheapened because the product…Read more lacks two complete sets of device adapters. At $50 and given Griffin's superb reputation, this is disappointing. You can buy the extra adapters, $1.99 per device ($1.99 is not for a complete set) + $5.00 shipping, but if you have multiple Apple devices, you'll easily rack up a $8 to $12 - pushing the price from $50 to $60ish. A complete set (mine came with 6 adapters) would be $12 + shipping.
I have two iPhone 3G's and was lucky to receive one of the newly shipping boxes that contains the single 3G adapter (so, I only need one more adapter for my other 3G). I own several Griffin products (perform great) and unfortunately, the decision to only include one complete set of adapters feels "cheap", which is contrary to Griffin's reputation and product quality and engineering.
The sales/marketing decision to only include one complete set of adapters should seriously be re-evaluated by Griffin - especially for a product that is clearly engineered to handle TWO devices.

My wife and I both own iPhones and one of us was always running out of battery. After I received this product, we are both fully …Read morecharging our phones at the same time with no problems at all.
The dock is actually very attractive. The size of the dock is just right on any dresser or desk or even night stand. one power cable and a bunch of dock adapters for all of the ipods and such. Each adapter is also numbers which assigns them to each device. Very easy to use and highly recommended(310 of 344 people found this review useful)

Griffin PowerDock 2 Charging Base for 2 iPod or iPhone Models
Nice organizer...

I saw this product and it grabbed my attention, because my girlfriend have been sharing one Ac charger for her ipod nano, my Ipod …Read more30Gb, and my iPhone. The Apple store shipped it with in two days of ordering, which is always a nice surprise after they tell you a longer ETA.
After opening and setting it up, I decided to use the custom dock adapter for the ipod nano, and the ipod 30gb. The dock works perfectly. It sits and helps eliminate clutter and having to constantly swap chargers.
I decided to not even use it for the iPhone, even though it is iPhone compatible. I use the Agent 18 eco shield case, and I never have a reason to remove the Phone from it. I believe the agent 18 even came with a custom dock adapter that allows you to charge the iPhone in a dock and did fit the PowerDock when I tried it. I just felt that the iPhone felt a little unsturdy, and was concerned about damaging it. However, that is just my preference, and again, it would work if you wanted to use it.
Only con: be careful when you insert the dock adapters in to the PowerDock, as they "click in to place", making them very difficult to remove. If you plan on frequently changing the dock adapters for different model iPods, this could be a problem. other wise ...charge on!(196 of 231 people found this review useful)
