iPod Alarm Clock – Wake me up before you go,go

 

iPod Alarm Clock

The iPod Alarm Clock is the mp3 alarm clock you have been searching for. With this alarm clock you can easily set your alarm to wake you with whatever your favourite song of the moment is – though perhaps not 'Wake me up before you go,go' – there are limits after all. You can easily set the alarm on your iPod to wake you with a specific Playlist, Album or Song, the Alarm Clock has an all important nine minute 'Snooze' (i.e. leave me the hell alone, this dream is more important than punctuality) function, and is adjustable so that it will fit more or less the whole family of iPods. It looks like a funked up traditional alarm clock, and the speakers are in the 'bells' on the top of the unit.

Mains powered, so you'll have no flat battery or recharging problems, and we reckon it's the alarm clock for the iPod generation. Wake up to something more tuneful than a bell or a beep, and considerably less depressing than the news.

 

Features

A traditional-look alarm clock that fits an iPod.
Set the alarm on your iPod and your choice of playlist, song or tone will blast out through the bell speakers.
A 9 minute 'Snooze' function.
An adjustable depth-dial dock to fit a 40GB, 60GB, 30GB, 20GB, Video iPod or a Nano.
Use the 'Snooze' button to scroll through your iPod.
Available in black, white or shocking pink.
Suitable for ages 12 years+.
Requires a mains adaptor (UK adaptor included).
Size: 14 x 14 x 7.5cm.

Wireless Outdoor Speakers
