iLuv today made available the latest generation of its iPhone- and iPod-ready clock radios. But this Alarm clock as a a kicker, or should I say a shaker. The iMM178 has a “bed shaker” pod which vibrates to wake you up. This a great idea for people in shared spaces where an sound alarm may cause issues who live with you.
The unit has one of the widest-ranging alarm configurations and can wake or sleep with the Apple device, shaker or radio as well as wake up to one of seven different alarm sounds. Alarms can be set either to trigger every day to automatically surface only on weekdays or weekends.
iLuv supports most dockable iPods and iPhones*, and it can use the time from the iPhone or iPod to update its own time in the event of a power loss.
