Great dock to charge and play iPod Touch 2G Jul 06, 2009
By A. Detherage Highs: Has good sound quality for the size, lightweight, sleek design with integrated carrying handle, charges 2G iPod Touch, FM radio is a nice bonus, includes small wireless remote with belt clip, runs on AC power or 4 AA batteries for portable enjoyment
Lows: Hollow plastic enclosure feels a bit cheap for $50. iPod dock adapters are out of date (no adapter for 5G+ iPod Classic or any generation of iPod Nano or Touch). Pressing the buttons on the front of the unit require just a bit too much force, causing the whole unit to move before the button has been pressed.
Summary: The Memorex MiniMove is a cool and highly portable iPod docking station that plays and charges all dockable iPod models. Overall, the highs outweigh the lows, making a great portable dock for enjoying your music at home and on the go.

Great while it lasted. Jan 11, 2010
By T. Donaldson After a couple of months of light use, it stopped working. I had to start wiggling the power cord, it was like a short or something, at last it stopped altogther. I really liked it while it worked. It charged the Ipod, had a little remote and the sound was good. The battery life stunk but mine was pretty much stationary so leaving it plugged in was not a problem. I have bought another brand for a replacement and I don't like it at all....I am trying to decide if I should give this one another shot.

Mini Move Jun 18, 2009
By Steve P. Highs Compact, portable size. FM digital tuner with 10 presets. Works fine with my iPod Touch.
Lows The FM tuner is somewhat weak. The LCD display disappears when viewed at angles.
Summary I bought this after returning a defective iLive iPod boom box (IBCD2817) and glad that I did. Sound quality is what I expected from a device this size and in this price range. It is put together well and works as advertised without costing $150.

Compatible with iTouch and FM tuner gets my stations Oct 23, 2009
By Charles Hall I bought one of these used for about $25, site unseen. I was fearful that the FM radio wouldn't be good enough to get my local public radio station, and I'd be frustrated. The only boombox I could try locally (an iCraig) had a terrible FM tuner and wouldn't function with the newer iPods.
The MiniMove was a very pleasant surprise. The digital FM tuner picks up my station without even pulling out the antenna! As the others have posted, it works fine with my iTouch (2nd generation). The box states explicitly that it will work with Touch(1/2), Nano(1/2/3/4), Classic, Video(5), iPod(4) and Mini.
It runs on 4 AA batteries or the included AC adapter. You need the remote if you want hands off operation of the iPod, since it has buttons that don't appear on the main unit (like 'play').
The volume level and sound quality are much better than the previous portable speakers I was using.
This is a nice unit and does exactly what I needed, and in a very conveniently small form factor.

Best Sounding Purse EVER!!! Aug 02, 2010
By Michael Thomas First let me get two things straight:
A) The current price is practically giving this thing away. The miniMove is an absolute steal for B) The miniMove is sized and shaped _exactly_ like a purse. So if you're a guy and you're carrying this thing around, you'll want to set it down somewhere ASAP. I'm just sayin' ...
OK, now that we've got those things out of the way, the Memorex miniMove is unquestionably the best value on the market today for a portable AC/DC stereo FM iPod dock. It has four features that set it apart from other On top of all that, the miniMove is truly small and lightweight, which makes it extremely convenient to use. You can put it next to your coffee maker on the countertop, and it won't get in the way of the toaster. You can slip it into the fishing-rod compartment in the side of your boat, and still get fishing rods in there. You can zip-tie it to an eye-hook and hang it on the wall, no problem. It'll fit in your back pack, your briefcase ... maybe even your PURSE!
Naturally, however, the small size of the miniMove results in one fundamental problem: no bass.
Actually it does emit _some_ bass but it's pretty flaccid. There's absolutely no boom in this box. HOWEVER, I discovered quite by accident that placing the miniMove in the aforementioned fishing-rod compartment actually enhances the bass quite dramatically. This little purse sounds pretty decent when it's placed in the right kind of resonance chamber.
Now for a few complaints (other than the distinctly purse-shaped design and the limp bass response):
1) The iPod dock is pointed straight upward with nothing to protect or physically support the iPod/iPhone while it's docked. It's a very insecure dock for what's supposed to be a portable device. A small bump will un-dock the iPhone or iPod Touch in the middle of a song. And if you pick up the miniMove while the iPhone is docked, you must be very careful to avoid having the phone fall off. This is the biggest weakness with the design IMHO.
2) The miniMove is made for the iPod, and isn't optimized to work with the iPhone. With the iPhone (pre-3G) you must manually put the phone in airplane mode before docking it to avoid a lot of horribly noisy interference. When docking the iPhone 3G, the iPhone offers you the option to go directly into airplane mode simply by touching "yes" on the prompt. Of course once you're in airplane mode, you can't receive calls or use the Internet to stream music to the miniMove, from Sirius for example. If you try you'll get that miserable interference. But once the iPhone is placed in airplane mode, the iPod app works perfectly to play music on the miniMove. You can stream music to the miniMove using the line-in mini-plug. UPDATE: It seems to work fine without producing noisy interference from the iPhone 4.
3) The remote has a very short range. It works pretty well within a couple of feet of the miniMove, but across the room? ... forget it.
4) The FM radio works fine, but it would be nice to have an AM tuner as well.
5) No tone controls. It has four EQ settings, which in theory should be helpful, but in practice the EQ3 setting sounds the best by a long margin. I never use the others. Of course you can adjust the source tone to some degree using the iPod's EQ settings. Just don't expect it to make decent bass unless you strategically place the miniMove in a 16-foot fiberglass tri-hull resonance chamber.
In sum ... The miniMove is an outstanding value for the current price. Yes it's girly looking and somewhat limited, but it's way better than nothing. Buy it before Memorex raises the price.
