Need a little help - ipod docks!?

Hi everyone,
I want to get my boyfriend an ipod docking station for christmas but i'm having difficulty in finding the right one as there are sooooo many available.
:confused:
I have a list of the things that i would ideally like included in it as i want it to be his main stereo system. Here are the main ones:
  • Around or under £100 mark
  • FM radio
  • Alarm clocks
  • preferably with a remote control although this isn't a must
  • can charge docked ipods
  • can take most models of ipod but i think my boyfriends is a classic video ipod.
Can anyone recommend any particular model because i'm just finding this to be an impossible task - i'm not too techy!!! :rotfl:
Also does anyone know if it's possible to get docking stations that have DAB radios built in rather than just an AM/FM radio??

Thanks in anticipation.:money:

  • This may do the trick from one of the leaders in DAB technology
  • THAT is perfect.
    Thanks soooo much!!
  • I've got the XetremeMac Luna, which fulfill all your requirements (although I haven't used the remote so I have no idea how well that works), but I just checked on Amazon and it's got 1-2 months delivery time :(.

  • Thanks guys.
    I found this which is more or less exactly what i want to give him but it's a little pricey.
    Any other suggestions? I would rather get one that someone knows about because there seem to be so many makes out there that i've never even heard of!
  • little-miss-little, I have resurrected this thread just in case you haven't made up your mind. I got this email today from misco.co.uk, advertising the Gear4 Houseparty 24/7 for £63.99 + P&P, and if you use quidco, you'd get a further 5% back.

    Reviews around the net for this product are good too
