When you need good iPhone and iPod accessory but for a smaller price tag you probably think iHome. This accessories developer is part of the SDI technologies, benefiting from more than 50 years of electronic device built. iHome was launched in 2005 with a precise direction, the accesoty market for the iPods. Later in 2007, iHome improved its line with iPhone compatible devices, in order to deliver what the market was demanding. Because of the great balance between built in features and price tag, iHome became, easily I might add, the most bought accessory manufacturer in the United States. In only four years of creating, selling and marketing their products, iHome spread the distribution worldwide, including over 55 countries until this moment.

The future is unpredictable, to say, at least, but for iHome one thing is sure: if Apple build the device, iHome brings the accessory. With such a positive perspective, iHome will likely become the best seller iPod and iPhone accessory manufacturer in many shipping countries. If you own an iPod and an iPhone and you want to keep both of them in the same place, without giving up the clock radio and audio system of your old iHome product, then take a look at the iHome iP 88G Dual Dock Clock Radio and Audio System for iPhone and iPod. This system will offer you the best combination between multiple dock implementation and excellent sound quality. The iHome iP 88G looks great. It has a nice design, providing a solid look.
The totally grey cover is the best choice, making it somehow neutral, easy to blend in, and stylish in the same time. The front of the IP 88G contains the speaker, and contains in the center a great LED display. Believe it or not, the iP 88G contains more buttons than any other iHome audio system. On top of the iHome iP 88G you get, beside the two docks, two click wheels for both docks. Therefore you can use your iPod from the dock #1 with the audio click wheel #1, and your iPhone from dock #2 only with your click wheel #2. In the center of this "button" you get the play / pause keys. Centered by these two controls you get three rows of buttons. The first row includes four keys, the start and stop button, radio button, sleep button, and the EQ keys.

The second row contains three keys with settings functions, while the third row adds the 1 to 9 numbers, for a better usability when programming the alarm clock. On the back you will get the DC adapter port, a DST switch, three buttons (clock adj, time sync, and time zone), the AM antenna plug in, and the audio line in jack. If you think that you will find the iHome iP 88G hard to use, you are wrong because the system is shipped with an easy to use remote control. Because of the EQ controls and the enabled 3D sound quality, your audio experience provided by the iHome iP 88G will be hard to forget.
Excellent features are provided for the alarm clock function (programmable snooze settings, triple alarm, and others). iHome ships the iP 88G (beside the remote control) with an universal voltage AC adapter, AM antenna, and 6 dock adapters (because the iP 88G is compatible with all iPhones and iPods - except the iPod shuffle). For a $149.95 price tag the iHome iP 88G "Dual Dock Clock Radio and Audio System for iPhone and iPod" is a great accessory for your iPod and iPhone.
