I was absolutely thrilled to see that the iDesign was not only compatible with my new iPod but able to support all my other iPods. The "Flip" design is wonderful and the sound quality is suprisingly good. Maybe iDesign should think about making a sturdier model, possibly out of aluminium. This product is a ..."

Volume control inadequate

"I love the flip design on this thing. It holds it just right for watching your videos and YouTube clips. What I don't like is the lack of control for the audio.

"We bought this for an iPod dock so for camping. Love the design and simplicity, but that is where it ends. Unfortunately, this will be returned before it really gets tested on battery life and other features.



The first problem you will find is that it easily falls over. So if you have it on a lev …"  Read Full Review »

What's with volume control?

"So surprized to find the volume control is incremental rather than continous, large gap between too soft to hear and too loud for quiet office music.I think quite a design flaw! "
