Bose Speakers - SoundDock - iPod Docking Station — 

I've wanted the Bose SoundDock for about a year now.  My father brought it with us on our Cozumel vacation and we used it to listen to the music on our iPhones as we lounged in the sun.  I told my husband that I ABSOLUTELY WANTED ONE FOR CHRISTMAS.  That didn't work so well, but I eventually received one for my birthday in March. 

The Bose SoundDock works with iPods and iPhones.  You simply pop your device into the dock, turn it on (using the internal rechargable battery or the AC power cord), select your song, and hit play.  It is very easy to use and control this SoundDock with the included remote control.  I figured out how to work everything without even opening the instruction manual.

I've heard various types of music played on the Bose Sound Dock both indoors and outside.  The sound quality doesn't disappoint, even when the volume is turned up and it is running on battery power for 6-8 hours.  Frankly, music played through the Bose SoundDock sounds as good as many stereo systems and much better than our older setup. 

At $399, the SoundDock certainly isn't inexpensive, but we've found that it is well worth the cost.  It works well both inside and outdoors at low volume, high volume, and anything in between.  We are very happy with this iPhone dock and would definitely buy it again.
