It is actually not that at all. The raw mp3 data is completely reprocessed on a board full of brand new analog IC's from Texas Instruments. This is still a very usefull project though as it could have serial capability once you get the MAX232. BTW Maxim has samples available from their site that ship rather fast. Try the MAX3233/MAX3235 instead because they contain all of the external capacitors that the others require. Good Luck!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason Slay]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 11th 2006 1:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[Eww, autorated pcb. This wouldn't take very long by hand and you'd get a clean result to boot! Interesting to see someone successfully transfer from paper, although in all the various media I've tried (transparncies, photo paper, sticker backing etc) I've yet to find a match for press 'n peel. It costs a little more than paper but if you're going to be making a lot of boards you probably want something that will give consistent results anyway. Nice writeup anyway!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[neato]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 11th 2006 6:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[i have never seen so many whiners.  this is a great article and a great hack.  grow up people.  if you dont like the hack keep it to yourself.  some of us that REALLY work in electronics and do REALLY build and hack things like this kind of article because it gets the creativity flowing in us.  yes there is always a better way to do something.  positive suggestions are always welcome, whining is not.<br>all your whining is just sour grapes because you cant do it yourself.<br>I for one support hacking and building electronincs.<br>keep up the great work guys. <br>Frank P]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Frank P]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 11th 2006 8:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nice to see someone still using the LaserWriter Select 360.

The copper may be no big deal, but the substrate is usually fiberglas, which is pretty abrasive s**t to drill through. It wears out drill bits like crazy, which makes carbide bits worth using, since it stays sharp longer. All-carbide tooling like this very hard, but correspondingly brittle. I'd suggest anyone drilling a lot of holes should consider using a drill press, even just a Dremel drill press, as doing so will keep the drill straight at all times.  (Hand-held drills are hard to keep straight, and not straight => bending forces on the bit => breakage. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Marty swartz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 16th 2006 11:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[If you are not going to use the serial connection, does the #1 pin and #21 pin have to be connected.

They are FREE! Depending on the chuck size, it will fit into a dremel nicely, or you can use a handheld drill or even a drill press with the teeth bits. They come in different shapes and sizes, some with a "ball" on the end, some shaped like router bits almost, but they are the perfect size.And they are FREE!<br><br>I also have a question though. I am trying to make a sync cord with the plug and a USB cord, and I need to know WHICH PINS on the Ipod connector are used for Charging, and which are used for data?...

I think this  is a great project and has a furture in many other projects. Thanks to this project i have started working on a project to connect my freinds ipod video to the toyota factory Head units with sat nav. Video and audio is done but I am working on a converter to connect the track up/down etc.. to the ipod as a CD changer. I have also built a Ipod mixing station with two ipod 20GBs connected to a 6 channel DJ mixing station in a briefcase powered off one 14v laptop battery !!!. I just arrive and hook upto the clubs sound system.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Colin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 6:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[I missed out in my comment before that both ipods are running rockbox firmware which has pitch up/down controls]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Colin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 6:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on How-To: Design your own iPod super dock (Part 4)]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/10/how-to-design-your-own-ipod-super-dock-part-4/</guid><description><![CDATA[would this work for a 30 or 80 gig ipod?  and what would be a good way to add an IR remote to the serial port that is connected?
