 iStage review Dec 26, 2007
By John Chandler
I got one of these for christmas and was excited at first but quickly discovered some quirks. Volume playback is good and sound quality is remarkably good for such a small device. Reading the instructions, it then becomes clear how to use it as its not obvious at all w/o them. Sometimes I like to jump right in but i could not figure out how to set time and alarm clock.
When in standyby mode, which is when you are not actively using it, the LCD panel is not lit and you won't be able to see. As a clock/alarm clock this is one terrible feature its missing, because if you put it beside your bed and you want to see what time it is during dark hours it does not have a backlit display. you have to hit the snooze button to light it up.
while playing music from my ipod, 3 times in the course of one song being played, there was noise interference. I can onyl describe it as what sounds like cellphone chatter, I could here ringtones being dialed, yet no one in my house was using remote controls, cellphones or any device that may be interfering in the frequency range. this was very annoying as i could not enjoy the music because loud chatter noise click would come and go.
lastly I could not figure out how to make the volume remain at a constant setting. it says to set volume then press the pause button to save settings but it never did and so everytime i turn on the device, music plays too loud which can be startling, not a big problem but it would be nice to have a lower default playback volume when turning it on for use.
lastly, no where on the device listing on the website does it say , NOT compatible with iPhone. Here is the scoop if you have an iphone. I saw a picture of what looked like an iphone and made the mistake toa ssume it was but its an iTouch. Your iphone will still work but if you dock it, you may get the message saying this accesory is incompatible and asks you to put it in airplane mode. This happens because I docked the iphone in muted mode, but if u take that off the message does not come. I mute and dock my iphone because i dont want to wake up my girlfriend, when you dock the iphone it makes a loud docking sound.
the instructions in the package say it comes with a docking cradle to fit your ipod but there was none in the packaging. I called Satechi.net and they said none comes included. the cradle on the device will fit any ipod despite the fact there is an open slot to fit it. Anything will fit so its not a big deal, it might have been a typo on their fault.
as for alarm via ipod, i could not figure out how to make it wake me up via music from my ipod. when alarm went off it buzzed, it would not play music from my iphone which was the whole point of owning this device but maybe thats because its not iphone compatible. it would be nice if the website had a warning because its too easy to see an itouch and assume youa re looking at an ipod. it says works with all ipods and an iphone is an ipod, so i dont know.

 Does not REALLY work with IPhone Feb 21, 2008
By W. Decanio
Others are saying the same thing NOW that I have mine. Here's aother review to stop you from believing the manufacturers claim that this is iphone compatible. I would recommend it for other ipods but absolutely not for IPhones! The phone continiously makes loud static interference. Turn off the phone and the interference stops. I knew I was in trouble the instant I plugged in the IPhone and the phone displays a message saying the device I just plugged into is not IPhone compatible!!!!

 Everything I wanted Jan 18, 2009
By Joseph T. Christopher
I bought this looking for a great looking iPod alarm clock...and I LOVE IT! Works great, easy to use. Very similar to the iHome if you've used one. The only sacrifice is a little volume for a great asthetic. Others claim the light is bothersome, I disagree. Its very feint and pleasant in color. Great sound quality, a little lacking in bass, but...it's an alarm clock for crying out loud.

Excellent Sound/Easy to Use Dec 31, 2007
By V. Quartaro
Purchased this for my son who got an ITouch for x-mas. Was supposed to be for his bedroom but the sound was so great we ended up using it in our family room. We used it to play X-mas songs and several of our visitors commented on the great sound quality out of such a small unit. My brother-in-law has an i-home unit and he said he was going to replace it with the Satechi because the sound was so much better! You really can not go wrong with this unit's good looks, great sound,ease of use and reasonable price.

Liar! Jan 07, 2008
By Andrew T. Kamarec
This item claims to be compatable with the iPhone. It is not. It would be really really good for iPod because the sound quality is amazing but if you want it for iPhone, stay away.
