This docking station give a tidy place to store your controllers. Plus charges the controllers when the PS3 is switched on. This works fine for me, as one controller can be charged when playing 1 player games. ie one controler is left in the docking station. Also I have the bluetooth remote control, so when watching films or downloading demos etc. both controllers are kept topped up.
As for comments about the flashing lights, well this is optional. Simply press the button on the docking station and they can be on or off, but the controllers still charge in either state...
Another advantage is this is a tidy solution, so the wire can be hidden permanently and just have the docking station available for storing and charging the controllers.
Rather than having a loose USB cable and no where tidy to place the controllers when charging..
Finally this station means two controllers get charged off one USB port, so if like me, you have a 40Gb PS3 and you only have 2 USB ports, this is great.

Bought this item hoping it would be a stand alone item to charge my controllers without having to have the ps3 turned on. Turns out you still need a usb port to power the unit (a cable is included which was pleasing) but any usb port can be utilized whether it be on a pc the ps3 or in my case the one on the back of my cable STB (a virgin hd one) ive tried it with a usb mains adapter and the dock powers up but the controllers dont light up (haven't done any testing to verify whether the controllers are still charging or not though) the light round the base of the dock look nice if you like that kind of thing, bit to much like a Christmas decoration for me but they can be switched off easily. overall i am pleased with this product it charges both my controllers and gives them somewhere to live.
Just to clarify December 30, 2007

Just to clarify a previous reveiwer stated that the lights don't light up on the controller it self when connected to a usb plug charger. This is because they onlylight up when they are connected to a ps3. However they still ae charging.
dont be put off buying

This is certainly worth buying if you have a ouple of controllers, it keeps them charged at all times and keeps them neat and tidy instead of thrown all over the living room and tucked behind sofas.
I have plugged mine into my V+ box and they sit nicely beside it, I believe some freeview boxes and SKY + boxes have a USB port on the back so if like me you have 40gb PS3 then you don't need to use any of those ports.
Overall I would say buy it.

I don't want to put you off buying a charging dock. Although it has flashing lights which are all different colours (great in theroy) but my ps3 is in my bedroom and its forever flashing and it keeps me awake. My advice just use your normal USB lead
