iHome A5 alarm clock and speaker dock
iHome have announced another new Alarm Clock and speaker dock for iPod’s and iPhones that will launch in 2010. This time it is the new iHome A5.
The A5 is the latest in the recent trend for iPod speakers and docks that are making good use of the boom in Apple’s iTunes Apps, such as the iHome IP49, which is clearly a deliberate strategy that iHome are following.
Evan Stein at iHome said “By combining our expertise in hardware with thoughtfully crafted lifestyle applications, we’re helping users harness the true power of the iPhone OS platform.”
Both of these speakers are designed to work with the soon to be released free iHome + sleep App.
The iHome IP49 and the iHome A5 offer some very clever new features when used with the App including tracking sleep patterns, gathering Sleep Stats, customizable alarms interaction with the most popular social networks, even weather forecasts and temperature readings all through a user-friendly touch screen interface.
The iHome IP49 and the iHome A5 also both utilise the renowned Bongiovi Acoustics’ DPS technology which adjusts the transients and harmonics to achieve more dynamic highs, lows in real time as your music plays as well.
The iHome A5 has already one won the prestigious CES Innovations Award for the Personal Electronics category even before it’s been released, which is very impressive.
All iHome are saying about availability for now is that the new iHome A5 will be available later in the year.
Let us know if you see the A5 available in any UK stores so we can all get our hands on this latest speaker dock goodie!
