Does this dock work with Zune skins or cases? I have the 80 gig so I need to take the base plate off anyway, would that allow more space for a protective cover on the Zune to dock?

unfortunately its a pretty secure fit when you dock the zune. What i found that works great is i bought the belkin screen protector sheets just to keep the screen from getting scratched up, and i bought the belkin rubber case with arm-band. Its really easy to pop the zune out of that case to dock it and with the screen protector on you wont have to worry about it getting scratched up.

Mine will hold both a regular charging cord and my headphones, but it's pretty snug. I'm not sure a dock would fit in there :\

I have an iPod. It did not fit in the docking station in a rubber bumper case. Since I got tired of taking the iPod in and out of the case, I have stopped using the case.

I Believe, but don't "quote me", that I read that on a forum(presumably good information)that they ARE backward compatible, so that the new dock V2, should work on all forms of Zune Players up to 80gigs, and I believe that either this newer Dock, or the next generation possibly V3, not sure, will handle 720P res. Feel free to correct/verify this information.

The dock won't work with the case. The case does come with a two position stand thatis handy.

Most iPod docks also have a non-iPod input jack. You can run a cable (not included, but not expensive) from the headphone outlet on your Zune to the input jack of the dock.

I'm 99% sure that they are incompatible. For one thing, they are completely different companies, rivals even. If you didn't know, they had at one point worked together before they had their businesses, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. I'd say that I would just buy a Zune Dock or get an ipod dock that has an aux output so you can use your Zune plugged into the ipod dock.

Since most speaker systems have a 3.5mm in, you should be able to use almost any speakers that are even made for ipods. We used our zune with a bose sounddock for quite some time and it worked well. There are 3.5mm to bluetooth devices that would allow you to transmit to bluetooth speakers (seach for 3.5mm bluetooth transmitter on amazon). I don't know how well they work, but that would allow you use any of all the bluetooth speakers out there. I don't think you're going to find a good docking speakers made for the Zune. Good luck!

Hmm not sure, I got my Zune as a gift. I believe the one I have is the last generation lol if the 1st gen is the brick one, then the charger cable fits. My brick Zune doesn't work so I can't tell if its charging or not. I'm sure all the zunes use the same size. Hope it helps!

NO, this was designed specifically for Zune. It works great, but the cords/slots are not compatible with iPod.

As long as it has the same connector as the regular zune, you should be fine. Id attach a photo of mine but I'm not sure how lol Sorry

I'm quite sure that it doesn't work with a Zune. At least not without a lot of effort to find an adapter. It is also not equipped with an auxiliary input jack. I think it would be best to find a dock made specifically for the Zune. Good luck!

no, it won't. I had a think phone case and i could not use the dock with it.

One thing that stood out when I was researching this before purchase, was dependent on what shows on the iPod/iPhone screen when plugged into the device (whether car dock, home stereo dock, etc). I recall seeing an explanation on this on cablejive's site, or maybe it was a chat tech support with them. This is the way it was explained to me when I was researching it, and it was true for my 2nd Gen iPod touch: -If your dock normally allows functionality of the iPod when you connect it, i.e. you can scroll through music and playlists, etc. but usually see the volume bar across the bottom of the screen disappear, then this would work with your device because it only requires an "audio" connection, not a full data connection. This was the case for my iHome radio dock at home, I could still scroll through music and playlists and Pandora from my iPod while docked. The dockboss air DID work for me in this application. -If your dock takes over the iPod, i.e. the iPod displays "docking accessory" and locks out all audio functionality, then this will not work with it as that device requires a full "data" connection to the iPod. This is the case with a BT device I added to my vehicle, it locks the iPod screen from any music menu stuff (music collection, Pandora, etc.), and forces me to instead select my music through the other device's screen. The dockboss air DID NOT work with this device. When you connect your iPod to your Chysler's cable, does it: 1-lock your iPod screen and force you to select music from your radio's screen? --if so, then this most likely won't work because the dockboss air doesn't support this data-based connection over the air 2-or does it keep your iPod screen open and allow you to select music directly from your iPod, and only transfer the audio to the radio (radio might just display "device connected" or something)? --If this is the case, then I would say you have a good chance this would work for you because this is an "audio-only" connection.

I use the sony official dock, but I can tell you the problem I faced since they have a similar build (unless you get the one with the case holder, which I wasn't willing to try). The charging side of this case comes up way to far, so I had to trim the case back about a inch, wasn't really hard few swipes with a exacto knife and i was able to cleanly snap it off.The real problem with the case is the weight, it tends to pull the phone backwards, so i have to position the case correctly to use the dock, it sounds more of a hassle than it actually is. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, the Zune HD is not 100% compatible with the speaker dock because it's not an Android phone. You may be able to hear the music play, but the buttons, remote, and charger won't work. Sorry for the inconvenience!
