Best iPod dock for around £50?

I am looking to buy the Mrs an ipod dock for her birthday, and I was wondering if any of you guys would be able to recommend one around the £50 mark?

I appreciate it won't be the best quality at that price point, but wondered if any of you have found a gem?

Thanks in advance.

Tesco were knocking out JBL on-stage docks a few months back for £40. Definitely worth the money, if you can find one. If you are prepared to go 2nd hand, should be able to get something decent and branded.

I picked up 1 of these last week. Very good but quite bassy depending on equalizer setting.

As it is for his other half I think he's after something that will play music without connecting to external amplifier or PC. I could be wrong though.

I have an Ipod classic and a new Touch. But my current Ipod doc (from M&S) will not charge the Touch at the same time. Is there a specific dock I have to use with the Touch or will any on those mentioned on here do.

The Philips I mentioned above plays and charges at the same time.
