iPad dock review
Hello everybody, I have decided to write another review regarding a new docking station I got. I'm sure you will all enjoy reading it's features. It seems not all models of iPad are supported yet according to the instructions but it does work on my iPad 2 and when I got it the iPad 3 had only just been released but it was not in the manual so it may be with newer models. (so check before you order but it should be ok)

Package Includes
1 x 4 in 1 HDMI Digital AV Docking for iPhone/iPod/iPad White

Pros
It just works a treat, especially with YouTube via the safari browser the video quality is great.
Great when using your USB keyboard and typing long documents.
Can use USB memory stick and digital camera via USB sockets on the side.
The games all work on the big screen and the sound too!
Remote control for your music and video.
Makes sideshows easy to watch without huddling round an iPad screen.

Cons
In order to watch it in landscape I had to tilt it on its side to make it go landscape and then lock it in landscape then the tv played it in full screen.
It did not come with an hdmi lead to plug the station into the tv but I had many of these laying around anyway (however it did come with the AV cables so it still works out of the box)
Full functionality of the remote is only for some models but it works great with my iPod touch, the signal is a bit weak on it though I had to be quite close for it to work but that could have been down to a weak battery?

So all round it's a great docking station which gives you the HDMI capabilities and power together, whilst using the two USB sockets on the side for keyboards and speakers etc you also get a neat little remote to control your music.
I bought this from <Edited by Moderator> and it was 35% off so great value for just £22.97 with free shipping too.
