    No mention of iPhone on their description, does that mean it's not compatible?

    Done a little digging and it looks like a curtis iMode IP220.
    Info here http://www.curtisint.com/web/category-Sub.asp?category=IPOD%20Accessory&subCat=IPODACC&catName=IPOD%20Accessory&p=2

    Seems it supports 1st and 2nd Gen nanos but not the 3rd ?
    Would probably play but would like it to charge aswell.

    Thanks for the help guys.

    The iPod connector and the API for playing music are identical across all of the bigger iPods and iPhones. It's only the power specifications that are different.

    I have an iPod dock that was made 2 years before the original iPhone was released, and it'll play music from my 3G, it just won't charge it.

    I would be very surprised if this dock doesn't play music from your 5G Nano, but I highly doubt it'll charge any of the latest versions of any iPod.
