Default Audio docking station?

Hi all. I just had a quick thought. a while ago back when I didn't even have a phone, I used an iPod, and an iHome docking station. well long since then I lost the iPod and really have no use for the iHome station.
HOWEVER--
I kinda want to look into an audio docking station for android. I know there's a small amount out there on the market.
so to everyone lurking these forums. have you guys tried any of these, and if so what's your opinion on them?

There is both a car dock and a desk dock available from Samsung. You can see several options on Amazon, for example.

The car dock is nice in that it relieves strain on the phone's connectors. Unfortunately it's mounting options are basically useless in my Mini Cooper.

Thanks for the reply, and I have looked at those, but that's not quite what I'm looking for. I'm talking about a stereo dock(one that has the speakers and stuff on the unit) I know the dock has audio out but I'm kinda looking for something different...kinda like the fidelio series by Phillips.

I've looked for something like that in the past, but Android doesn't get a lot of love in that arena like the iOS devices do. I think you'll probably have to find a speaker setup with a standard 1/8 audio jack.

Aw. That's what I was afraid of. I didn't think there would be a big audience for this, but I thought I'd give it a shot.

I was just wondering if anyone has tried the very few out there. I do appreciate the help though
