Clearly it is made from about 50 cents worth of parts...its getting audio from the headphones as you can see the cord so it must be charging through the dock.  Can't see myself hooking this up when I can just use the phone as it was designed.  Only way I would purchase this (but not for anywhere near $195) is if it made the ringer louder on the phone and even then I probobly wouldn't buy it]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[newdeal]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 27th 2010 8:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on iRetrofone Base: perfect for homes with cutting-edge GPRS reception]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/27/iretrofone-base-perfect-for-homes-with-cutting-edge-gprs-recept/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/27/iretrofone-base-perfect-for-homes-with-cutting-edge-gprs-recept/</guid><description><![CDATA[oh p.s.
