Sony Speaker System with Apple Dock

I heard the Dock in a store and really liked it. It is pretty much a one trick pony, but that trick is just what I wanted for the Kitchen/breakfast nook. Of course the music is the main attraction and it is first class for the size of the box. I have my music shared from my Mac to the iPad and the WiFi sounds great. Any kluggyness is the fault of the limited iPad operations but I live with that. Listening to streaming radio is easy with the apps. For my iPhone all is good. My 30 Gig hard drive iPod isn't recognized. My 5th generation Nano (the last one before touch controls) works fine. The 30Gig will work from a line out for the headpiece, but it is a disappointment and not in the literature that I saw. The Nano has a radio that requires the headphone wire, but you can't plug in the nano to the Sony and use the headphone out as it is inaccessible. I didn't downgrade the dock for not playing the iPod, but a warning would have been nice. I've only had it 10 days, and I'm very happy with the purchase. Oh, yes it is attractive and isn't noticeable as are so many alternatives. I'm not very interested in the newer version with streaming abilities and the money off for the same exact speakers and configuration fit my bill. It was $80 off at the Sony Store and also here at Amazon through J&R.
