DLO unveils iBoom Travel, updates TransDock and HomeDock Deluxe

by Darren Murph posted Jan 8th 2007 at 11:15AM

It seems that iHome, Altec Lansing, and Acoustic Research aren't the only folks busting out new iPod accessories, as DLO is strutting its stuff too with a new iBoom Travel as well as revamped versions of the TransDock and HomeDock Deluxe. The miniaturized version of the iBoom ($89.99) combines a clock radio with a portable, AA / AC-powered boombox, which comes in white or graphite colors, boasts the usual sleep / alarm functions, and sports an iPod cradle and LCD screen to boot. The TransDock features an "enhanced mounting arm," video-out for use with in-car displays, top and side mounted antennas, and removable faceplates as well. Additionally, you can connect other DAPs via the aux in jack, and the USB pass-through allows other random USB gadgetry to be charged while it's in use. Lastly, the refreshed HomeDock Deluxe ($149.99) didn't change much in the design department, but did add on-screen album art on a dedicated "Now Playing" screen, a dozen new color themes and screen savers, and a feature that enables "on the fly" playlist creation. The iBoom Travel and HomeDock Deluxe are currently for sale directly through DLO, while the updated TransDock is still waiting for its own release date.

To whom it may concern

My 12 year old daughter has a DLO Iboom #009-2021 and it fell off her shelf. the fron panel came off and it has 5 wires soldered but 3 of them cmae off. The yellow and orange wires are still attached. i'm trying to find out if you know in what arder the other wires are in. What I have left is a red, grey and black. So looking at the solder joints just below the slot for the ipod starting from the right side is yellow (soldered) then orange is (soldered) then I have 3 missing solder joints I just don't know which color goes next and then after that. Could you plese help me.
