Product Description 2nd Generation iPod Shuffle Dock - The 2nd Gen iPod Shuffle already comes with this dock - but if you lost it, broke it, or just want another for work/laptop/summer home/spaceship/submarine, then pick this up ASAP!
Amazon.com Product Description Designed for use with the iPod Shuffle 2G, the Apple MA694G/A Dock provides quick connectivity to computers without an easily accessible USB 2.0 port. Essentially an USB cable with an integrated dock, the MA694G/A is the ideal spare or replacement docking station for your second-generation iPod Shuffle because it's the same model that comes with the Shuffle 2G. Additionally, it saves you the hassle of reaching behind your computer to plug in your iPod nano, and makes it a snap to charge and sync with a computer or power adapter.

Shuffle Dock January 19, 2008 This is the third or fourth dock we have purchased in less than a year. They are not built very sturdy at all, and the pin coming up gets bent or broken easily. The shuffle is nice, though.
works but.. January 7, 2008 Not the same quality as the original by a long shot. Do not like the fact that the plastic is colored blue - that was not in the description. It works though, and is a less expensive alternative to the original.
Apple iPod Shuffle Dock - Works but Overpriced November 17, 2007 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
The replacement dock provided by Apple for the Shuffle is as overpriced as the Shuffle is. This product does work, but there are alternatives ranging from 40 cents to $5 that will do the same job.
This fills a product need created by Apple. If this was made better the Docks wouldn't break so easily. Normal USB adapters should have been included with the product instead of the mini-doc, or at least backup cables. A standard USB port connection could also have been used.
Check out the alternatives which are much more reasonably priced. USB adapter for the 2 Gen Apple iPod Shuffle APPLE Ipod Premium White USB Data / Charging Adapter Adaptor for Apple 2nd Generation Shuffle IncipioBud USB adapter for the 2 Gen Apple iPod Shuffle
Having a backup dock or adapter is a must for your iPod shuffle. It just doesn't make sense to buy this replacement from Apple.
Good luck!
Good item, terrible price October 31, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
i think the dock has some good item quality, but the price is insane...come on. There is a item out there that is $5.oo and you don't need any cords. It connects the Shuffle straight into the computer from the usb without and necessary cords!
Not Much to Say October 19, 2007 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
I can't really say much about the dock other than it's good to have on hand in case you've lost the original one that came with your iPod. Although I'm sure there has to be a better way to replace it.
