Buy iLive ISP209B Portable Speaker System with Alarm Clock and Dock for iPod and iPhone (Black) Now
This product was exactly was i was looking for: An ipod docking station that would my music while charging, it has an alarm feature and can be played outside on 4 AA batteries. Granted it doesn't have an AM/FM radio, but if you read the user reviews beforehand you'll already know that, and that wasn't too important to me anyway. As for volume, i haven't tried it outside yet, but i went to level 30 on the volume inside and my mom who was downstairs told me to turn it down. I have the ipod touch 2g and it charges and plays it just fine. The only thing is that you cant dock the ipod 2g on the docking station with a protective case on it. That's all right though because im most likely going to get an invisheild for it so i can protect it and be able to dock it on the station. The remote works fine and is very easy to figure out and the station is the same way. It has dual alarms so you and your roomate/sibling can also set an alarm along with you. To me it looks like the battery to the remote is the same battery as in a wristwatch so if it dies you can easily buy another one. I haven't tried the range of the remote yet but it works in my room from about 10-15 feet. When using the station outside on battery power, it will not charge your ipod unless its plugged in, which makes sense because it would drain the battery in 10 min if it charged on battery powered. It has a snooze button in case your like me and dont like waking up on time. You can operate the ipod by the remote, the docking station, or the ipod itself. Overall, i think that this product is just what i was looking for at the price i was looking for, and dont judge this product by the other reviews because most of them gave low ratings because there is no AM/FM radio and didnt rate the product itself. Hope this helped and if you have questions or doubts just comment or email me with them.Don't let the small size fool you-the sound quality was better than expected. Had all of the features that my daughter wanted, and is very portable-extremely importantly for the young teen.I have had the iLive unit for a few weeks now and enjoy it's compact design and crisp sound. The bass sound is limited but what you would expect from such a compact design. Do not insert the additional parts if you want to dock your iPod with a skin. The directions are very poor and it is not simple to figure our setting the alarm, sleep timer or setting up your iPod to play.This can be plugged or unplugged with the iPod/iPhone playing. its truly not a bad system. a bit complicated to understand but after getting it its really a good system.
