Product Description

Tired of constantly peeling your iPod from its case to use your docking station or iPod speaker system? Does attaching dock-mounted accessories like a voice recorder make you speechless? Thanks to the SendStation Dock Extender, that's all a thing of the past. No matter what case you own, SendStation's Dock Extender has been designed to fit it. Your Dock Extender uses the same compact iPod plug as found on the standard iPod docking cable from Apple, so it's compatible with all cases that have a dock connector opening. The Dock Extender also includes a matching Universal Dock insert with a removable support and three interchangeable bumper caps. It's like a good friend, one you can lean on: All iPods in all cases are welcome to take a break and recharge. (All 30 pins are passed through, so any other iPod feature works too, of course). Plug & play finally is back!

Works with Otterbox Defender Case for iPhone 3GS.. with a little tweaking
I recently purchased this dock extender after plenty of research. I was trying to find a solution to the seemingly universal problem of mounting an iPhone 3GS equipped with the Otterbox Defender case to a dock. This is by far the best solution. Although the extender will not fit through the case at first, a slight modification to the small piece with a Dremel will do the trick. You simply use a sanding bit on a Dremel (if you have one, or you can ask around your friends to borrow one as I did) and shave off a small section on each side of the dock extender, and Presto! Fits like a glove and works brilliantly. I am using my iPhone 3GS with the Boston Acoustics HDUOIPW Duo-I Plus iPhone/iPod Dock AM/FM Stereo Radio and Clock Functions (Gloss White) and the dock extender works great. The back support really helps as well to keep the plugs from wobbling loose. It might be a little pricey, but it's the only clean-looking solution to iPod/iPhone case docking issues on the market right now.

Perfect extender!
Perfect for what I was needing it for! Now I no longer have to take my iPod classic out of the case before I can hook it up to the fm transmitter! It works with all the cases I have for my iPod. Perfect perfect perfect!!! :-)

Able to use with case, but not too well.
Pros: for the most part, can dock ipod nano 2gen with case, though it's too fat and pushes the case halves apart to seat properly. This causes the extender to get pinched and stay with ipod when ipod removed from dock.

Cons: Waaaaay too expensive for what it is, though without competition on the market... it's the only way to go.
I had mine fall apart when I gently pulled on the housing to remove it from the white ipod cable. I had forgotten to press the sides of the oem white cable and the guts slipped right out of the plastic housing. This was my mistake, but I wasn't pulling that hard. Fortunately, I was able to bend the foil shilding back in place for the most part and put it back together. Glue would be a great idea.

All in all, it does the job, but just barely.
