I received my black sound dock the other day and I can truly say they are a thing of beauty!
The hefty weight keeps the dock stable so placing and lifting the iPhone on/off the dock is a breeze one handed. On the sound, I really think it's even better when on the dock. There is no distortion at all and I think it may even sound a little louder which is great for my alarm clock App.
I am very pleased with that. One issue I have is that the standard cord is a little short but an extension cable should fix that if needed at all. Another small issue is that if you are a girl with nails, it's a little bit harder to get your finger in the scooped out area to access the home button, but it's very do-able.
I am waiting for the black slant sound dock to be available which Dan said should be soon, to see which model I like best but all in all this is a fantastic dock and well worth it!
Dan was a pleasure to work with and communication was excellent.
I only wish that all companies were this easy to work with.
Someone had mentioned that they thought the dock was too tall. I don't think so at all. In fact, it makes it that much easier to get you hand around the iPhone.
The rubber protecto on the bottom of the dock along with it's hefty weight helps keep the dock in place and it doesn't slip or move around making it again, very easy to dock/undock your phone.
I have the Speck CandyShell case and it fits in the slim dock perfectly. It sits down in the dock enough that even with a slight bump the iPhone will stay docked and not damage the connector.
This is one of the best iPhone purchases I have ever made.
