    iHome just announced the new iA91 Alarm clock.  It’s an app-enhanced dual alarm clock that’s designed specifically for Apple’s iPhone and iPod.  It has AM/FM presets, and full app-enhanced functionality for use with the free iHome+Sleep App and iHome+Radio.

    Star Rating: 
    Cost: $99.99
    Where to buy: [amazon_link id=”B004X68M0W” target=”_blank” ]Amazon[/amazon_link]

    The[amazon_link id=”B004X68M0W” target=”_blank” ] iA91[/amazon_link] can charge, play and help you wake to iPhone/iPod custom playlists or AM/FM radio.  It includes a remote, time sync, and twin passive subwoofers for enhanced bass response.

    I played with one a couple of days ago, and the bass sounds like “Bose Wave”-like sound, all for a fraction of the cost at $99.  Trebles are crisp and snappy, and the App-integrated functionality is a very cool feature that will have you playing around with this thing for hours. It has dual alarms, 7-5-2 alarm settings, programmable snooze, gradual wake and even a sleep volume setting.

    This is actually the 8th-generation, count them…8, model of the iHome dual alarm clock, and the company has really outdone themselves with the [amazon_link id=”B004X68M0W” target=”_blank” ]iA91[/amazon_link], all the while maintaining a very affordable price…. one of the best new gadgets on the market for alarm clocks.
