Last week we received four of these very groovy Jackpot Slot iPhone Cradles to giveaway from iWorld Australia (thank you guys).

I’ve been playing with one on my desk for the last couple of days and I must say that I have quite attached to it. Not sure if it’s because it relieves me of my ulterior gambling tendencies or its cool red-nobbed Jackpot Slot handle that activates play and ejects my iPhone.

Either way, I know that a lot of you iPhone owners out there would want one!

When iWorld Australia asked if I wanted to review the iLuv iPhone App Station, I jumped at the opportunity. Even without touching one, it looked like such a practical iPhone peripheral. For example, what better way to make use of a dormant charging iPhone than to have it function as a clock radio? But there’s so much more to the iLuv iPhone App Station…

Just when you thought everything was becoming wireless, a South Korean company by the name of KeeUtility, does something innovative and goes in the opposite direction – introducing the iPhone Desk Phone Dock.

At first, one may question the logic behind this but if you tend to not play games or music on your iPhone when you’re at home and simply use it for phone calls then it makes total sense. The iPhone Desk Phone Dock will keep your phone topped up as well as allowing you to make and receive calls without frying your brain with possible mobile phone radiation. I love how they’ve also incorporated “Apple minimalist” styling into the piece.

The next step they could possibly take is to incorporate a clock radio with speakers

iPhone Desk Phone Dock Description

Things are being constantly changing. The world is divided into two eras – the world before and after iPhone.

Even though most of your telecommunication is being done via iPhone, we know that you still have a wired desk phone or IP phone on your desk. Are these traditional devices still essential in this new era of iPhone? Probably yes until the advent of Desk Phone Dock.

With Desk Phone Dock, use your iPhone as your one and only integrated wired desk phone in your office or home environment. You can make and receive calls like you did with a traditional wired phone. You don’t have to look up a phone number in the other devices any more. Your iPhone is always fully charged and ready to go at any time. It is very convenient for your business and personal needs.

Desk Phone Dock has built-in two stereo speakers, microphone, volume control, instant mute and USB & AC power dual sources. With these built-in features and distinctive design, Desk Phone Dock will keep your desk neat.

No more multiple phones, bunch of cables and other accessories on your desk. Use your iPhone smarter with Desk Phone Dock.

Sieben Australia provided us with their new and improved iPod dock, the Sieben iDock Gen 2. Although it looks the same as its predecessor, it offers significant functional improvements and upgrades over the Gen1 unit – not least of all video compatibility with Apple’s latest iPods.

Features of the Sieben iDock Gen 2:

The main advantages that this dock has over the standard iPod dock that comes with your iPod are the following:

• Allows you to connect directly to your stereo
• Allows you to connect directly to your TV
• Charges your iPod or iPhone
• Metal body gives it a solid feel
• Weighs 320 grams which means that it won’t be moved easily
• Features gold plated connectors that guarantees high quality sound and image

Although it charges and plays music with the iPhone, it is not 100% compatible. Despite this, I still enjoy seeing and using it on my desktop with my iPhone in place.

Sieben iDock Gen 2 Compatibility List:

• iPod Nano 1st Gen, 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen, 4th Gen
• iPod 5th Gen – 30GB, 60GB, 80GB
• iPod Classic – 80GB, 60GB, 120GB
• iPod Touch – 1st & 2nd Gen
