9. DLO HomeDock Deluxe (version 2)
Editors' rating: 7.3
The good: The DLO HomeDock Deluxe lets you play your iPod's songs, videos and photos through your television or your stereo, and its ability to output music and video menus to television makes it easy to navigate your songs, TV shows, movies and podcasts from across the room. This improved version displays album art, lets you create a playlist on-the-fly and includes 15 screensavers. An 18-button IR remote is included.
The bad: Unfortunately, the DLO HomeDock Deluxe has no onscreen menu for photo content. Also, an input lag makes scrolling through long lists of songs or artists difficult, and the software doesn't show you which podcasts you've already listened to or viewed. We experienced a few software glitches in our testing.
The bottom line: The DLO HomeDock Deluxe offers an attractive but pricey way to enjoy your iPod's content in the living room.
