SendStation's latest PocketDock is slightly larger than a penny, has much better audio quality than a dime
SendStation has impressed us before with its PocketDock line, back in 2007 releasing a tiny nub to suck audio, video, and even get a USB out from an iPod. The company's latest, the PocketDock Line Out Mini USB, is far smaller -- no bigger than Apple's own charging plug -- yet sports a Mini-USB port for charging and a non-powered 3.5mm line out that enables better quality tunes from your pod when connected to an amplified device. The kit even includes a set of tiny stereo RCA jacks that would like nothing better than to mount the front of your receiver. This latest PocketDock is available right now for $29.95 on the other end of that read link, and we're told they'll be showing up in Apple Stores, too. [Via SlashGear]
SendStation announces PocketDock AV iPod adapter
Accessory-maker SendStation looks to be trying to extend its tentacles to as many devices as possible with its latest iPod adapter, tying together a variety of audio and video connectors with its PocketDock AV. As you can see above, you'll get your choice of S-Video or composite video, with the usual left and right audio jacks pumping out the tunes, and a USB plug conveniently provided for syncing or charging your iPod. Detach the iPock dock unit and you can also use the cable to hook your 15 or 17-inch PowerBook up to a TV for some big screen viewing. Look for this one to be available direct from SendStation early next month for $36.95.[Via Mobility Site]
