This review is from: Griffin 9211-SNSADK PowerDock for Sansa (Electronics)
The product is alright. First, it doesn't come with a wall charger. Which you will have to buy seperate if you want to charge your Sansa other than from your PC.
MOST IMPORTANT!!!! Sandisk has released a Power Dock for the Sansa which plugs into the wall and has a remote control. I found out the hard way, needless to say i own both of them.
Amazon offers the Sandisk version of this dock, just do a search!

This dock does exactly what I wanted it to do...
I only give it 4 stars because it didn't come with the wall charger, but I had a bunch laying around anyway. This uses a standard USB connector and I must have a dozen random devices that use a wall charger compatible with it. Currently it is using the charger from my old Rio Carbon MP3 player, but it could also use a charger from most newer Motorola cell phones.
As it is, I keep this on my desk at work. It is plugged in to the wall for power and I have powered speakers hooked up to it. I come in each morning, drop the Sansa into the dock and hit "play"
The music comes through the powered speakers and the player gets charged thanks to the AC charger.
Yes, it is silly that it doesn't come with the AC charger... but it *does* work and the price is right. I'm going to buy a second one to use at home. You might even have something suitable laying around and you didn't realize you could use it with this dock.

Bought this after reading the other reviews. It DOES work as a charger. I also used my old Rio Carbon charger. Works fine. I didn't buy this to link to my computer so I can't comment on how that may or may not work. The dock is very nice. Brushed aluminum looks real slick. It looks better charging your Sansa in a upright position. Takes less of a beating that way. If your looking for a simple charging unit then I would recommended this. If you wait and watch the price's you can pick this up dirt cheap as I did.
