iLuv App Station speaker dock rolls with its own Alarm Clock App

It's CES again kids and that means it's time to pump out as many iPod / iPhone peripherals as possible. Most are lame reworks of designs we've seen over and over and over again. iLuv's App Station, however, is a refreshing update that combines a few old designs: as a rotating iPhone speaker dock, the device can be shifted into vertical or horizontal positions for movies or music. But there's also a free downloadable iLuv App that turns the device into a big ol' alarm clock. The App Station is expected to go on sale in February for 130 beans.

Well well well isn't that HTC Touch Flo 3D on an Iphone?

Shhhhh!

Just remember it's for the iPhone and therefore it made the HTC stuff "better".

Looks liek it's trying too hard to be an HTC app.

@HardToBelieve
When I first saw the picture, I was wondering who made a dock for an HTC phone.

Then, I had myself a jolly ol' laugh.

+1 HTC, -1 iLuv

Any preference between lima or kidney beans? I have more than enough of each, I'd be willing to give 150.

That thing is awesome looking. I just wonder why every clock radio with an ipod dock connector has to cost $100

I got an email about this same product this morning (attending CES too, woo!) and my first thought was, this must kill your screen life. I much prefer the ones that feature a good set of speakers and just charge and pull songs from your iPhone/iPod.

Too expensive, next!

I just want a DOCK. The iPhone has a speaker. Sure its not great but for playing an alarm sound its entirely adequate. Just make me a copy of the multimedia dock for the Motorola Droid and I'll be happy. With the dock connector in there somewhere of course so the thing can lay sideways so it can't be quite the same--e.g. a 7 shape lying on its side...

@Fanfoot So what you're looking for is something like the Dexim P-Flip
available through Brookstone.

I'd really like that app RIGHT NOW. I've missed the snazzy flip clock since my Windows phone died, and with weather and all? Gief

[foxbert Posted Jan 5th 2010 12:07AM]

@felixkry Kensington makes a very similar iPhone app for one of its docks. It's called Rise & Shine. It's got a flip clock and an auto-locating weather report in the corner. It's free - http://bit.ly/RiseShine

@felixkry Yeah. I can't find the app on the App Store. It would go well with my iPhone sitting in its alarm/radio dock.

I cant find the iLuv App on the iTunes store....
