Philips Portable 7" iPod docking system DCP746/37B

Philips Portable 7" iPod docking system DCP746/37B for $35.99

Jun 18, 2010 9:21 PM

Ok - I don't have the full range of details here on these but I think I'm ordering two of these as well as soon as this gets set up. The price seems ridiculously low for me to be able to stick my old iphones in and have them charging while my boys watch movies on long car rides. I'm assuming maybe the UI or something sucks? I guess worse case you start playing and then connect.

(I asked for techs to test this thing on the iphone as Philips wasn't allowed to officially show them as compatible..)

hmm.. no stats module for me to get to enjoy being first sucker. maybe it's delayed.

so now that my order is in, any opinions on these? what's the downside?

(yeah, I know I'm totally biased as the CEO selling this stuff but let me have my fun)

In for one - Couldn't pass it up at this price. I'll be going to nights at work soon and I've got a car trip coming up. Can you say lots of time for watching TV shows and movies from my iPhone? I wonder if my iPhone 4 will unofficially work once I get it..

@limehaven:
Hmmm...
You better check somebody's review on Amazon.

A member just said this dock's quality is horrific...

I never understood the need for these, but at this price it makes it a little bit more temping. This is the first time I've heard of Katie Melua and I liked the YouTube song up until the pan flute kicked in.

I got two of these in January from Woot for $60 each, so the price is great here. I've used the crap out of them, too: traveling, at school for individual video assignments, in a guest room with a basket of DVDs, to watch while I'm "working" on grades/lesson plans...

I don't have an iPod, but the little pop-out cubby is the perfect size to store the remote so it won't go off to Remotewonderland like most of the others seem to do. Wish I had my summer paychecks and I'd pick up more for gifts.

@thinkerk: ah boy, I didn't realize we sold these before. I haven't found the old thread - if someone does it'd be worth linking to for perspective at $60.

Is this a DVD player as well as an ipod dock?

@stimes1976: I didn't believe so at all - I was confused by that earlier post. I figured maybe it has video in and they have a separate dvd player by it, or they are thinking about an entirely different Philips product. I'll try to check on out over lunch - mine haven't arrived yet and I didn't look at this in sample room.

@snapster: It's just an iPod player. No DVD or Memory Card slots...

@kevinatwoot: did we sell it before under some different name or were they remembering something else.

@snapster: We sold a different model (DCP851) on January 21st

http://www.woot.com/blog/viewentry.aspx?id=11075

That one had a DVD player and an SD card slot.

So, do you think it's illegal to mount this on your steering wheel and watch movies? ;)

Since I'm the only one in my car, this product is so not useful for me. Except maybe, if I decide to live in my car.... mmmmmm... possibilities.

I picked up the 59.99 one in January and haven't used the memory card part yet. I love mine but wish the battery would last longer. i paused the movie and forgot about it - when i tried it again later - and no more charge left.
i'm totally wanting this one or three. my ipod nano worked fine on it. i hope it comes with the car and house plugs like the other model.

@ger16: It should - Click the image on the site and it pops out with an image of a car plug and home plug with it.

It also lists them in the accessories list:

AC/DC Adaptor: (100-240v, 50/60Hz)
Car kit: Cigarette outlet adaptor, Rear seat mounting kit

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
