iHome was established in 2005 as a division of SDI Technologies to develop and market iPod electronics. The first iHome product introduced, the iPod Clock Radio, was an unqualified success that became the top-selling iPod accessory for the year, and firmly established iHome as the premier brand in the iPod electronics market. Since then, iHome has been at the forefront of design with a growing lineup of award-winning iPod-compatible audio products that includes portable and home speaker systems, as well as new lines of mobile phone and computer speakers.
At this year's CES, iHome decided to make its latest products known, three portable speaker solutions, iPhone and iPod compatible. “We are truly excited about the potential of our 2009 portable products as they represent a great mix of design and sound innovation,” said Evan Stein, vice president of Marketing, iHome. “Whether you’re traveling for business, pleasure or just spending the day outside, these portable speaker systems provide a tremendous amount of functionality and accessibility,” he added.
The product line presented at CES includes the iP29 Portable Speaker Case for iPhone/iPod, the iP49 Portable Rechargeable Audio System with Alarm Clock & FM Radio for iPhone/iPod and the iHMP5 2 in 1 Portable Stereo Speaker/Headphone System. All three of them guarantee you a clear and crisp sound, but it's the iP49 that kind of stands out for its features.
Thus, the iP49 Portable Rechargeable Audio System with Alarm Clock & FM Radio for iPhone/iPod features all the high-end clock radio functions found in an iHome home unit, presented in a sleek and portable design with a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Featuring the Bongiovi Acoustics’ patented Digital Power Station (DPS) technology and four neodymium compression drivers, consumers will hear their music the way the artists played it.
