Logitech Pure-Fi iPod speakers: What's the best option?

The Pure-Fi Anytime: One of Logitech's latest iPod clock radios. But how does it compare to the other models in the Pure-Fi line?

Logitech's line of Pure-Fi iPod speaker docks has swelled to six, and CNET's reviewed pretty much every one. Some of the models have very similar features and price points, so it seemed like a perfect candidate for a cheat sheet:

*The Pure-Fi Anywhere 2 is not yet reviewed, but it's pretty much identical to the original Pure-Fi Anywhere, but with the addition of iPhone shielding.
**The Pure-Fi Express isn't yet reviewed, but it's effectively a renamed version of the older AudioStation Express.

Basically, go with the Elite if you want the best sound quality--we still think it's one of the best-sounding models from any manufacturer, and it's available for as little as a third of its list price. The Dream or the Anytime are good choices if you want full clock/radio functionality, while the Anywhere 2, Express, or Express Plus are good if you want portability.
