Best iPhone dock <£100 ?

Wanted as a present by student, one of those things you plug your phone into and it acts as a sort of boombox.

Anyone know what's good?

Thanks

The few I have heard have been pretty poor - instead I use a Line Out cable which can then be plugged into a variety of devices with aux input rather than be limited to a dock. Not what you asked but a different approach that might of interest

I'd look at the cheapest end of active monitors aimed at home recording / bedroom DJs etc and just hook the iPhone up to them, e.g. something like these from M-Audio. Not heard them myself, but that's where I'd go looking.

The dock designed by Terence Conran is currently going for £70 on Play.http://www.play.com/Electronics/Ele...tml?_$ja=tsid:11518|cat:19642832|prd:19642832
Real hifi it ain't, but it sounds pretty good. Looks nice, too.

Have a look on Logitech's site (click on special offers at the bottom of the homepage for some good deals)
Often cheap and quality usually good.

Your best bet by far from what I've heard from docks. Horrible things!

You could do much worse than a s/h pair of Fostex PM0.4's. I have a pair in my bedroom and they are spectacularly good for the cash either with a laptop or my iphone.

About £90 ish.

I bought this Phillips dock for my daughter a couple of weeks ago and am very impressed for the price. Goes quite loud too:-

Which only rate the Zeppelin as a best buy but the next best score goes to the JBL Radial, currently £99 at Comet:
