30 Pin is the longer pin area were you plug in the charger. The new iPhone 5 has a smaller connection and this will not fit.

30 pin is the older Apple connector ,iPhones 4 and older,older iPods, iTouch ect....It the plug that's wide and narrow. The new plugs are called lightning and are small. They are on the newer Apple products.

That's the type charger for iPhones up thru the 4s. The wide connector that attaches at the bottom of the phone.

I noticed that this Docking Station is always on. But it's not really a 'docking station' in the tradition sense. You plugin your USB to your laptop to 'drive' the unit.

I did not find any case that aloud me to use docking station at the same time. I would just remove the case when I would dock the phone.

Docking port ... lower right corner back side... conveniently located yet very stealth

Kinda prefer hard drive docking stations actually. Especially ones straight up and down. Easier on the motor. One I'm using is Vantec e-sata in white. Think it only goes to 3TB so when I go to 4 TB I gotta look for a new one. I mostly prefer it because I can stick a 3-4 inch mini fan behind it if it gets too warm. And cases don't do much for heat dissipation even the ones that are supposed to. Only one that did they don't make anymore :(

yes, the docking port has been improved and I can leave the protective case on and charge/play. The older unit was not able to charge in the case.

I haven't used a docking station. The speakers I use connect by a cord. Sorry!

It allows you to use your Apple device on docking stations when the device has a case on it. Many cases do not allow you to use your device in a dock without taking the case off. This extender is a 30 pin male and female.

From looking at the external plug ins on the DV6 spec sheet there is not one for the docking station. Double check with HP but I would say no.

Does the case and screen protector mean the iPod Touch will no longer fit in a docking station? (and thanks for all this information - it's appreciated!)

If the reviewer you referenced cannot find the port, he (she) does not need the case. The port is on the end of the case. My case performs exactly as advertised and expected.

This Dock Extender (I purchased the 6-foot for 30-pin) does pass through all functionality that the device would normally have when directly connected to a dock. I read reviews and Jive's website details, both of which did seem to say that the cable has "full 30-pin pass-through," and I have not encountered anything to the contrary in regular use over the past 6 months. Essentially, the "dockstubz+" seems to be a small adapter that serves the same purpose, but in my case, I wanted to flexibility to lay my device (iPad 3rd gen) down on a table, rather than risking its standing up in a dock and getting knocked over. Let me know if that helps. Thanks and good luck.

The pinned connector at the end connects to one of the main board USB coonnections. It's simply an expansion piece.

The integrated dock is 30 pin, so no, not in that respect. The other aspects work fine, as you'd expect.

There is no docking station if that is what you are looking for. Hope this helps.

The 30 pin connector is the original docking connector for Apple devices. The lightning connector is used on the newest Apple products like the iPhone 5 and the newest iPods and iPads. There is an adapter available from Apple that converts the lightning connector to the original 30 pin connector.

There is a docking station available, other than that it has a power cord just like any other LAPTOP. That and having only one type of case available is the only drawback to owning this PC tablet.
