It appears Best Buy has the Nexus S dock on sale right now for $19.99 instead of the normal $39.99. I picked one up for my Nexus S last night. Be sure to check out your local store if you are in the market

Yikes, just read the reviews on Best Buy's website. Seems that this is not a multimedia dock, but just a piece of plastic that holds your phone while it charges. No speakers or audio input on the dock, nothing multimedia about it.
Then don't buy it

It clearly states in the description that it is designed for you to use the speakerphone and media player while charging the phone. Think of it like a kickstands that charges your phone.

The Nexus S Dock is a bad joke. No comparison to the great Nexus One Dock. I don't want to have to fit in the usb slot every time I put the Nexus into the Dock. With the Nexus you just put the phone on the Dock without fiddling around. I think every Nexus phone should have such charging contacts like the Nexus one did...

I picked one up. If nothing else, it's a cheap OEM charger. They also had an open box Samsung Nexus S car dock for $22.99.
Both work great, especially the car dock. It's nice to have something made for the Nexus S, even though the dock isn't powered (you have to manually plug in the cord). Not a big deal as I've been doing it all along anyway when I get in the car.
yeah this dock is kind of a joke compared to the nexus one dock. i hope the nexus prime or whatever they call it has inductive charging or at least charging contacts like the n1 did.
Finally it's arrived this accessory also.

Did you get this already, I didn't think they were out? Man i want one of these bad.
For anyone interested. I've had this for over a week. I must say I am highly impressed with this thing. Smaller than I expected. Great sound and no distortion. I'm no audiophile by any means but this little thing rocks. I've had no issues with it connecting to other devices from Ipad, Kindle FireHD, or Ipod. Only thing is the Ipad wouldn't control the audio volume, had to use the hard keys on the speaker. Very happy with the purchase. With shipping it was $126 off of ebay. Shipping was 18.00 from Japan.
I got one of these for my wife and its great. Shipping from Japan took about a week. Its easy even for her, all she has to do is tap it with the NFC. The sound is loud and clear. This is the best accessory I have seen.

There you go, £59.99
Thanks, price bit steeper than was expecting. Was hoping more around the 39.99 mark, but hey its Sony after all! Might have to carry on my hunt to add bluetooth to my iPod dock or get it once xmas is out the way. Just out of interest can you plug it over aux to a larger hifi system?

Guys i just brought this as well, very excited LOL
I was just wondering how loud does this speaker get?
It gets fairly loud, and good sound for such a small device. It's not going to be as good as a stereo system but pretty much everything I need

If anyone is interested, Amazon has the car dock for $7.

Has anyone used this before? is it worth getting?
I use mine every day. You'll have a car charging plug that goes from the cigarette lighter to the dock and then a cable from three headphone output on the phone unless you use Bluetooth

not the best sounding, but decent. I like my lg hbs 730 for bike riding. No wires to get in the way and stays on my neck very nicely.
I highly recommend you Philips Fidelio M1BTBL headphone! It's pretty expensive but boy. What a sound. I have 14 different sorts of headphones (I work for a music company) but this is my personal favorite. Battery lifetime is good, the noise reduction is perfect, real good monitoring of high and low ends. And it fits really comfortable!
And of course easy pairing with the m8..

What are you going to be doing with the headphones? Biking running lifting walking ?
I just bought the Motorola S305 headphones, they're $50 at Best Buy, but they will price match Amazon ($35), by far the best deal for the money. Battery life is not that great - 4 hours of talk time (listed specs), music playback is probably a little bit longer. They do charge very fast though. Range also isn't very good from my experience (phone is always in my pocket anyway), but that probably has more to do with HTC Sense which always has some type of issues with bluetooth...but like I said, best deal for the money.
I use it only for biking.

Great thread, I am also looking for he best value bluethoot earbuds to use while running or biking. They all seem pretty expensive, is there on option on the 30-50 bucks that is worth it?
Cheers
Ive also been looking into bluetooth ear buds, for work related reasons its not great to have wires hanging everywhere, Ive been looking at the Plantronics Backbeat go 2's the price doesnt seem too awful and the look to perform like other earbuds
I got these for about $20 AUD recently.
Looks like they sold out at the moment, but I am sure they will get more.
They sound good enough for what I need them for - work phone calls at home and a bit of music. And they come with a pair of detachable ear loops to keep the earphones in your ears while exercising.

I have two pairs of Soul SV3 bluetooth headphones. A lot of bad reviews on Amazon for the earpad covers not being glued on well, but when I got the silver ones they were $40. These are basically knockoffs of Beats, so not for running. One of the many followers that attached a rapper's name to their $200 headphones. These no longer endorsed by Ludacris. Personally I haven't had any problems with the earpad covers. They could've have done a neater job, but they are still glued on after a month of daily use. They have bluetooth 4.0 for better battery life and Apt-X which the HTC One M8 supports for better bluetooth audio. They also have a detachable audio cable and are nicely packaged. Definitely weren't intended to be sold for $40.

I have the Harmon kardon Bluetooth wireless headset, it's completely amazing! The sound is just phenomenal, if your looking for headphones that aren't Beats, these are worth checking out.

The LG Tone Infinims? I have them too, very pricey, but great sound, way better than I ever dreamed I'd get with Bluetooth. Definitely worth the but (though I may buy a pair off eBay and save some money off what I paid at the AT&T store, haven't decided if I wanna risk it yet).
Also got the HK Bluetooth headset. Compared to my urBeats the sound is amazing...
