just thought I pass it along this is just in time for Christmas this alarm clock had good reviews.

The iP41 is specifically designed to take advantage of the iPhone & iPod's variable aspect screen. Place the iP41 on its side to watch widescreen video and the clock display will adjust to match. Compatible with most docking iPods.

* Wake and sleep to your iPhone/iPod music or movies
* Change orientation to watch videos: LCD changes to match orientation
* EXB™ Expanded Bass and Reson8® speaker chamber technology for richer sound
* Plays and Charges your docked iPhone/iPod when connected to AC adaptor
* Universal dock plays and charges iPhone and most docking iPod models (docking connectors included)
* Aux/MP3 line-in jack provides a connection for non-docking iPod models, MP3/CD players and other audio devices
* Optional full function remote control
* Includes AC power adaptor and button cell battery

I just picked one of these up last week (for almost double this price :( .)

It's a pretty basic alarm clock, single alarm that either plays your iPhone/iPod, or buzzes if there is nothing in the dock. There are a couple volume buttons, alarm set, alarm reset, power, and snooze.

The biggest complaint I have seen is that the snooze button is RIGHT in front of the unsupported iPhone, which has the potential to be a disaster when someone flails for the snooze button in the dark. I've solved this by setting the clock in a corner, and the iPhone is supported by the wall.
