iHome iP88 Dual Dock Stereo Triple Alarm Clock Radio for iPhone and iPod
Works great for me!
Written by KP from Parsippany
Sep 5, 2009
I'm a student majoring in engineering and am using this iHome iP88 docking/clock iPod Touch G2 charger as my primary alarm.
Positives: Great simplistic look, great quality, no glitches found, FM radio reception is spectacular, works seamlessly with my iPod Touch (no improvising). One button time-sync is awesome! Sound is decent for its purpose. Good value; got it brand new for 20% off and with bonus noise canceling ear buds. I love a good bargain! Happy shopping!
Negatives: Seems a little pricey still, but worth it. So many buttons can become confusing late at night, especially after a few drinks. Flawed design allows for catastrophic damage to iHome iP88 system or iPhone via charging station (connection is NOT flexible). Not for kids. I would like to see some "ruggedized" products like this. Waterproof electronics should be standard, especially in cell phones and chargers. …More310 of 341 people found this useful

iHome iP88 Dual Dock Stereo Triple Alarm Clock Radio for iPhone and iPod
Good Idea, okay implementation
Written by AM from Pleasant Hill
Nov 30, 2009
This product seems like a great idea, two people with iPhones can charge them together on their alarm clock with everything sync'ing. Problem is there are a few little glitches.
First, the phones go to vibrate. This doesn't seem to be a problem unless you are a support engineer and need to hear when someone is texting or emailing you in the middle of the night.
Second, it's bright. You can turn off the backlight but if you do don't expect to find any button except snooze. The dimest setting before off is still too bright so you are caught. I have to use my phone's alarm instead of the clock's just so I can turn it off without waking my wife.
Third, it's somewhat unreliable. We had ours 3 months before it just stopped working.
Buyer beware. …More127 of 146 people found this useful

iHome iP88 Dual Dock Stereo Triple Alarm Clock Radio for iPhone and iPod
The ultimate multimedia audio device in a simple box
Written by CM from Pittsburgh
Dec 19, 2009
I haven’t had the device 24 hours and already love it! I can listen to the radio, listen to iTunes or turn on one of my apps and enjoy those. The set up was easy and the pre-sets weren’t hard to get running. What is real cool is I like listening to baseball games with the MLB AT BAT app, now I can listen with my iHome radio. The same goes for the audio sounds I have (Sleep master rain, storms and nature), I can now enjoy a full day with one, well built device. …More

iHome iP88 Dual Dock Stereo Triple Alarm Clock Radio for iPhone and iPod
Great bedside radio
Written by JM from Booneville
Dec 14, 2009
I bought one of these before the Apple store even carried it. Good sound with shielding to prevent cell phone interference. Has a "7-5-2" (weekday, weekend, 7 day) feature on the alarm clock which is a must and drives me crazy when an alarm clock does not have it. The only thing that I would like to see changed would be the actual dock itself. I have not broken either one, but they are not the sturdiest of attachments. If you keep a crowded nightstand, I could see accidentally breaking the connector by hitting your iphone or ipod with a a book or something similar. The clock will sync using your cell phone, but this is not as easy a feature to use as they would have you believe. I will say iluv took it one step further and has pretty much a clone of the ihome model with the addition of a s.a.m.e. noaa weather radio built in. We have never used both docks at once, but having the second dock seems to be the only way to get all the great features of this radio/alarm clock. Overall this is a very good nightstand radio and alarm and I highly recommend it. …More
