Bose SoundDock Portable - iPhone

[rickhuizinga]

I'm considering purchasing a Bose SoundDock Portable, primarily for use with my iPhone.

Can anyone comment on the SoundDock Portable's performance with the iPhone with regards to GSM noise when used with the iPhone? I would like to keep the phone active while playing music, so using airplane mode is not an option.

Thanks,

Rick

Yes, there is a small amount of interferance, but unless the volume is set very low this cant be heard whilst you have music playing.
I have my Bose dock by my bed and listen to it every night before going to sleep...and hey, it's fully charged in the morning.

An update: I received the SoundDock Portable for Christmas, and have detected no iPhone GSM noise through the speakers. It works great. My iPhone is now my daily alarm clock, and I wake up each day with my iPhone fully charged.

I've now been using the SoundDock Portable for more than a month, and it has worked well with the iPhone.

An update: Since upgrading my iPhone to firmware version 1.1.3, the iPhone now displays the "airplane mode" warning when docking. This did not happen with firmware version 1.1.2.

I can also confirm that I have experienced absolutely no GSM buzz through the SoundDock.
