I got a recently. The sound quality is pretty good, fine for a bedroom or bathroom. It wouldn't have the umph to replace the main stereo system, but it is neat enough to bring round the house or even on holidays (as I'm planning to do next week). The Smyths price above is about a tenner less than mine cost at a 3G store. It has battery and mains options, and also charges up the iPod while on the mains supply, which saves some USB fiddling.
