Really cheap alternative but it's not really a dock.

That's actually really nice.
If i had room for it on a side table or desk i'd buy that.
I'm really diggin that.

That is pretty cool. It seems kind of big though. I have a Crate & Barrel store about 10 miles from me, maybe I'll go see if they have them in store.
Anyway I ended up going with the Luxa2 H1-Touch stand. It works like a dock and a stand so I figured it was the best of both worlds. I got it for about 34 dollars shipped from tigerdirect.com and there is also cashback from bing at 15%. It might get kind of annoying to have to manually push the cable into the phone every time though. Oh well we'll see. The shinjimoru is next on my list if the Luxa2 doesn't work out.
It had an A- at iLounge until Thermaltake raised the price on it: http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/re...ouch-mobile-holder-for-iphone-and-ipod-touch/
Another option if you are feeling adventurous is to to modify an older (and very inexpensive on eBay) Apple dock. I modded a universal dock to fit my iPad. It also holds the iP4 nicely - with or without a case....and it also gives me: remote control capability, audio line out & video out.

i like that. it's simple and clean. but i don't have room for it in my room. that's bookmarked too. thanks for sharing!
It does look beautiful... I've just ordered one myself!
i ended up picking one up for myself on ebay.
got it for less than retail. so i'm happy. this thing looks like it came out of an apple store. i like how it has the USB cable's logo on it.
I won't make another thread to ask you a question along the lines of this same thread.
I'm wondering where you got that shelf you have on your wall? iIt's the perfect size for my small room. And where did you get all of those accessories? Please share!
I just ordered a sinjimoru dock... that thing is sexy and will work great with the half busted cable that stays hooked up to my desktop mac.

What is this one called on eBay and how much did you pay?
If you an extra few seconds to read the thread, you'd know.
It's from Sinjimoru.

I did actually look at the entire thread but there was nothing that actually referenced the product. Now that ik what it is called I can say that the name was mentioned and then the picture was posted which is why I was not able to find the name.
Thank you for clearing up what the products name is.
the shelf i bought at target for $6 and it was really easy to install. they have it in black also. the accessories i'll post another video with links. will let you know asap. i'd rather show you each with a little more detail than the pictures i showed in this thread.
the seller's name is Cyanics i think, here's a link
http://stores.ebay.com/CYANICS-IPOD-SPEAKERS-AND-MORE
it's called the Sinjimoru Sync Stand. they've got other products as well including the iDock which i'm interested in since i still have a cassette deck which produces better sound than a transmitter.
Thank you very much for that information as well as the link. I very much appreciate it.
Does the Sinjimoru stand work for a naked iPhone 4? I've heard that with the angle of the 30-pin connector, the phone isn't thick enough to be supported by the rear part of the stand, so that the only thing holding it up is the connector itself.
Has anyone tried this? Is it true?

Yes, it works for a iPhone without a case or "naked". Just ordered it and I love it. Very stylish and practical.
a Tip
I'm the original poster of the video. So a tip from me to all of you, if you've got an ebay account.
Go for the auction if you're patient enough. It could so happen that you win the bid at a lower price. Then it can also happen that if you do lose, they could offer you another stand at a lower price than $15. That's why i love ebay.
cheers.
PS. I can confirm that it works well without a case.
