iHome, a division of SDI Technologies, recently announced the iH5 alarm clock radio for iPod users. Users can select audio from the integrated iPod interface or from fm/am radio. The iH5 features integrated speakers with "incredible clarity, depth and power." The speakers use Reson8 sound chamber technology. The alarm also features a wake buzzer. It automatically charges any iPod placed in the integrated dock. The device is designed to match the iPod. It features a white plastic enclosure with metallic speaker grille. It features a large backlit LCD display that serves as a clock, tuner, and audio source selector. The iH5 is not currently available, but will start shipping later this summer. SDI Technologies said the iH5 will ship in August for $100.
