I own an iPhone 2G 16GB running on 3.1.2 OS.

I got an Apple Remote Control from the Apple store online.
On its specification explained that it works with iPhones Universal Dock.

I have my original iPhone Universal Dock whose it came with my brand new iPhone but the Apple Remote is not working when I use my iPhone on its Universal Dock.

Did the Apple, Inc. mean another Universal Dock which I have to obtain it?

Happy New Year

The Lord bless
