Well, you're in luck because the company behind the iW1 AirPlay has a slew of refreshed docks just waiting to step and repeat at next week's CES. On deck are the $270 iW4, an AirPlay for your bedside table, the $70 iP18 with its selection of four distinct flashing LED colors to rouse you from rest and the$170 iD50, a Bluetooth alarm dock that's equal parts clock radio and speakerphone. Sadly, it's going to be all show and no buy for a while, as these iOS-friendly devices won't be released until later this year. Think you can sit tight? Good, then check out the PR after the break while you wait.

iHome Gives Clock Dock Category a Wake Up Call at CES 2012
Category Leader Continues to Innovate with Style in 2012

RAHWAY, N.J., Jan 05, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- iHome, the company that changed the way we wake up in the morning, is at it again with an entirely new line of docking alarm clock speaker solutions debuting next week at CES 2012. From the debut of AirPlay within the clock-dock category, to the widespread incorporation of app-enhanced features and expanded charging options, the iHome bedside experience continues to deliver great value and diversity.

iHome is showcasing the following new alarm clock speaker systems at CES 2012 in the North Hall, booth #N245:

-- iW4 AirPlay Wireless 20 Watts Bedside Speaker System for iPad/iPhone/iPod: making its alarm clock speaker system debut, AirPlay utilizes the home WiFi network to deliver more flexibility than ever before. Easily stream your entire iTunes library over the network to listen, sleep or wake to your favorite tunes. The iW4 is expected to retail for $269.99.

-- iP18 LED Color Changing Dual Alarm Clock Speaker System for iPhone and iPod: a little bit of color goes a long way with this ultra-modern and stylish alarm clock speaker solution. Now with a smaller footprint and new cube design, this app-friendly Glowtunes offering has big features including four color-changing modes, Reson8 speaker chamber technology, one-touch clock sync and more. The iP18 is expected to retail for $69.99.

-- iD50 App-Enhanced Bluetooth Alarm Clock Radio Speakerphone for iPad/iPhone/iPod with AM/FM Presets: the alarm clock you'd expect to see on James Bond's nightstand, but with a price tag that makes it realistic for non secret agents to own. The iD50 is strong in the features department and has a smooth finish that will stir you to wake rather than shake you. The iD50 is expected to retail for $169.99.

"Since 2005 we've been providing the best wake up call in the business for iOS device owners," said Evan Stein, Director of Marketing, iHome. "We're very happy to be continuing that tradition and look forward to showing off our latest creations in Las Vegas."

The new App-enhanced docking alarm clock speaker solutions above, as well as the iD38 and iD95, will be available later this year. For further information, please visit www.ihomeaudio.com.
