Hands-on with iLuv's i399 and i1255

Lord knows there's no shortage of iPod docks in the world, but what's interesting about the i399 is its Bluetooth 2.0-enabled remote feature which gives you control over your music playback from up to 300 feet away. We're not entirely sure that that plus speakerphone capability and a beat-sensitive blue "mood light" are worth 229 clams, but we can say the sound output for a unit that size was pretty decent. The i1255 packs a DVD player and iPod dock in one unit outputting via S-video, although an HDMI out version i1257 is reportedly slated for release around the same time in March.

Ya know what? You don't have to cover all the landfill waste at CES.

90% of the new tech is the same thing in a different plastic shell. Perhaps with a software update.

Perhaps I can filter out the CES news... it's not really news.

It's like Deja Vu ... I swear I've seen this before.... ;)

How come the picture is of a Lifebook?

BORING!!!!!!

Common Engadget - these iPhone/iPod/iThis/iThat CRAPTASTIC accessories are getting very tiresome. Please stop reporting on them.

I actually really liked the report on the JVC dual-dock alarm clock report. Of course you're not going to like everything they report on...no one likes everything, geez. Good thing the world doesn't revolve around you, the rest of us can still get news we're interested in as well.

Don't get me wrong, Engadget does a great job. Its just that there are way too many of the POS "i" gadgets on the market to be reporting on all of them.
