OUT OF THE BOX
Even though Gizmodo is critical of this new iPod accessory, it's something that many iPod owners, including yours truly, are going to find rather useful. Here's what the gizmo is all about:
"SendStation, maker of various doodads for the iPod, has created a solution to that small problem of your iPod case getting in the way of the dock connector in some situations such as the one depicted above.
Put this little SendStation Dock Extender on the end of any iPod and its receiving end will extend beyond the confines of that case, allowing you to plug it into a dock or anything else without ever removing the case again."
As someone who likes to put all his iPods in various types of cases, this thing sounds like the perfect solution to a minor but irritating problem. Assuming of course that the thing works as advertised. Will know more after trying one of them out.
Beauty, or in this case, true utility is in the eye of the beholder.
This device looks usable, but for every good iPod accessory there are a dozen useless ones. My favorite is the iPod toilet roll!
