I'm looking for a relatively cheap (preferably around $30 or under) that works with a 2G ipod touch.

I saw another thread here about sub-$30 LODs but I thought I should make a distinction regarding the 2G touch since I hear some accessories no longer work with it.

I plan to use this to hook up to my car system. Maybe a portable amp sometime in the future if I can find a good one that doesn't cost too much.

Thanks

Can I tag on to your post? I too am looking for a reasonably priced iPod LOD.

Here is what I have found so far...

Sik Din - Compact design but have no use for the Firewire Cable so kind of puts this one out the running.

PocketDock - Nice and compact and means you can try different interconnects but I want an all in one solution to hook my iPod to my portable amp.

Unbranded on Ebay - Looks good and is $30.

Ebay Unbranded 2 - But seems better spec. Is it worth twice the price though?

If any one has any comments on the above or can offer alternatives please let us know!

In addition to those you mentioned (well, the sik din and pocketdock), Aerotec, I also saw this on iBasso. Only $14, though I didn't see what shipping would cost and I don't know if it works with 2G.

edit: I checked out how much shipping would cost to my location (Washington state) and it was $22, coming to a total of $36. I also sent them an email asking whether or not it will work with iPod Touch 2g. I think I'll go ahead and send a question in to sendstation about the pocketdock too.

edit again: I just noticed on their website it says it works with all generations of iPod Touch. hmm.

You might want to send Lil' Knight a PM.

He will make up a nice LOD for you, at a reasonably price.
Lil' Knight does good work, and he is a pleasure to deal with.

I went ahead and bought a Pocketdock last night, paid a few cents over $32 after shipping. As long as it does what it needs to, I'll be happy. Looking nice is just a bonus, haha.
