That makes sense. Thanks. Are there any compelling reasons for getting the Onkyo-specific dock (beyond the possibility of using my current Onkyo receiver remote), or will the DLO, Kensington, etc. brands work equally well?

A frienf of mine has the Onkyo dock and it sends song info (title, artist) to the receiver, and you can see it on screen. It's butt-ugly white on black text much like the receiver's set-up screens. Maybe newer versions send album art though.
