First off: The part, which I received came, not from Sony (but Amazon touted as "Sony stock"), but of a No Name Company (Eagle). The most important: When docking station I understand a part, to which I can dock a few steps a device and the full range of functions is given. Here, however, far from it. The packaging is a text that you can establish a synchronization with the PC via the docking station (which should also be the purpose of a docking station from my technical understanding ago). But far from it: this docking station is only there to provide the phone with power. But even the very limited because: It lacks its own power supply ... so you are dependent on the supplied with the phone or have to buy one at that The largest Schildbürger String: the supplied power cord is exactly 15 cm long (measured from plug to plug outer edge the outer edge, so net even shorter). So back to the supplier ... But who would not again have the part. I have my money still get (the only good thing in this action)
