Google’s Nexus One Desktop Dock: unboxing, first look

My first impression of Google’s N1 Dock? It’s pretty sexy and functional, though I anticipate reader complaints about the fact that it doesn’t allow the user to watch movies in landscape or transmit data. I haven’t even used it overnight yet, so I’ll reserve further judgment for a few days.

    Yo John! Love the dock.

    And if you long press on the dimmer button, it'll go automatically to the neon green screen saver clock.

    Wait…West Slope! I live SW PDX off Garden Home. Craziness.

    So when you say that it cannot transmit data, does that mean that I couldn't set it in the dock and have it play music from Pandora (or Slacker etc.) through the connected speakers?

  4. john says:

    It means you can't connect the dock to your computer and transfer data. You can still stream Pandora through your connected speakers.

    it's kind of a kip off if you think about it $45 plus $10 shipping

    Overnight shipping IS NOT the only option. 2nd day air is $5 and Fedex Ground is free.

    John, it looks like you missed one important feature which almost makes the dock worth the $55. At about 2:32 in the video you’ll notice the documentation mention “Pairing” which allows you to transmit music via Bluetooth to the dock. So i can sit back on the couch and transmit music to my stereo. I first saw this here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HsG4xCVb2s

    I guess I’ll need to find a different protection case if I’m going to get a dock…

    Oh ok. I thought you meant that you couldn't do edge or 3g while docked. Thanks for clearing that up.
