Summary: excellent product bought it for an ipod 4th generation 20 gig 2007-08-16
Comment: i just tried it today it works really nice. i actually use it for my regular ipod 4th generation 20 gig. if u do want it for that you are going to have to get the plastic covering off though. i did that by taking a sodering iron and melting the whole pretty much top off and it took awhile and i burnt my leg but it was all worth it cuz i got it for like 9 dollars too which is so much better then 50 dollars at target. woot!

Summary: Not Such a Great Product 2007-08-11
Comment: I bought this with the soul purpose of charging my ipod in the car - the fm transmission has lots of white noise - when using a cassette adapter via the headphone jack, eq settings are over-ridden as well as volume setting. Eventually the socket came undone and launched the fuse into the car making it unusable till I found another fuse. I now have an adapter from crutchfield that plugs directly into my cd changer controller and works (clean sound) much better as well as keeping the ipod charged.

Summary: Not the product that's advertised 2007-05-19
Comment: This product states that it is compatible, via trays, for an iPod nano as well. When I received it, this is also printed on the box several places. However, upon trying to fit my nano in the tray I found that there is no way it will fit...anyone who has a nano knows that the plug on the bottom is offset slightly. So, a mini ipod would fit perfectly as it's plug is centered. The 2 pieces were about 1/16 of an inch off and there is absolutely no way it would fit...4 of us tried!!! This was a big disappointment. I ended up going to a local RadioShack and buying the correct one. I was very disappointed in Belkin for this product as they usually put out very good items!!!

Summary: Not for 30 gig ipod!! 2007-03-20
Comment: I have no idea how well the TuneBase actually works because it is not compatible with 5th generation ipods like the product description claims it is. DO NOT buy this if you have a 30 gig 5th generation ipod!! The ipod will not fit in the tray!!!
