One Thing to Dock Them All and on The Markets Bind Them Universal docking stations for little money	By Florin Tibu, Editor, Software Reviews 14th of March 2007, 08:45 GMT Adjust text size:


You all know that docking stations are the next best thing after the devices they have actually been built for. And since there are few major portable devices battling for world supremacy, it was just a matter of time until the dock producers split up and chose sides. Now, this isn't necessarily a bad thing as people themselves chose sides when they bought one or another type of portable player, exclusive by their own nature. Now it's time that this kind of exclusivity struggle ended; and if people or major docking stations producers won't make the first move, it's the small manufacturers who will. MacWay had little patience in this matter and issued a docking station to make everybody happy. The i.Sound MovieTime universal docking station will work with SanDisk, Zune, iPod, PSP and even with any other MP3 player, CD player and the like. It not only docks but also interacts with regular portables by means of the traditional 3.5mm jack. Game consoles and portable DVD players are as well supported so the i.Sound MovieTime looks like it's set to become a bestseller. Apart from the classic command buttons placed on the front panel and which allow you to easily control your media, the i.Sound MovieTime sports 2 1.25" speakers per channel, loaded with neodymium magnets and has a surround feature, which will spread the sound even further than you could think such a small piece of gear could. Running on 4 AA batteries (for any truly portable purpose) and on AC when needed, the i.Sound MovieTime will blast a total of 12W, making possible a party in your living room; not quite a rave but you'll surely have some nice sound. For a price of around $77 dollars, you can have it.
