Title: Poor execution
Product review: I purchased my Nyko ahead of a year long trip abroad, thinking it would be a bit of time between chargings. I ended up tossing it after only a month.Simply put, even the slim design adds enough bulk to where you no longer can comfortably fit your ipod into your pocket. The unit itself adds no discernable play time and if you have it plugged in to the power unit and the ipod at the same time, the ipod will not draw power from the unit, effectively draining itself. This means I was spending twice as much time charging each unit. The same problem happens when charging - you can't charge the ipod while it is plugged into the Nyko. You have to charge each seperately.You are better off going on the internet and building a do-it-yourself battery pack. Its easier, cheaper, and will work better.
