iHome, a division of SDI Technologies and leading worldwide
manufacturer of award-winning iPod accessories, is set to launch the new
iP99 iPhone clock radio at Brookstone on June 1. Brookstone is one of only
two retailers that will carry the iP99 iPhone speaker system throughout the
summer. Beginning today and until the product launches June 1, Brookstone
is offering free shipping to any customer who pre-orders the iP99 iPhone
clock radio from a Brookstone store or online at http://www.brookstone.com.
Retailing for $149.95, the iP99 is the first speaker system that docks,
charges and plays music from the iPhone without sacrificing any of its
functionality, meaning iPhone users now can listen to their music via
speakers and still receive calls. The iP99 does this by eliminating the
interference, called shielding, that plagues other audio systems that try
to play iPhone. The iHome iP99 also docks, charges and plays all docking
iPod models and is the only speaker system that is compatible with both
iPhone and iPod.
Housed in a sleek design, the iHome iP99 lets users wake up to their
favorite iPhone or iPod music from iHome's proprietary Reson8(R) speakers,
which produce 10 watts of power and are designed to deliver outstanding
clarity and depth. The iP99 also features an AM/FM radio, alarm buzzer and
a remote that controls both iPhone and iPod functions and menus.
Beginning today through June 1, customers can pre-order the iHome iP99
iPhone clock radio and receive free shipping, by visiting any one of
Brookstone's 314 stores nationwide or at http://www.brookstone.com.
