IPAD 2 BUYERS’ GUIDE<br />

IDESIGN<br />

the company has expanded beyond<br />

clock radios into new categories; kidfriendly<br />

speakers such as iH15 (below)<br />

and premium models such as the $300<br />

iP1. The first product of a partnership<br />

with Bongiovi Acoustics, iP1 stepped<br />

up in audio quality, and also set a new<br />

standard in product design for the<br />

price. Since that memorable launch,<br />

iHome has led the industry in iOS appenhanced<br />

speakers, first with the iA5,<br />

then with the iA100 alarm clock, which<br />

became the first iPad-compatible<br />

alarm clock system. In so doing, iHome<br />

transitioned its best-known form factor<br />

into a new age. And then it departed<br />

from its past design cues with the<br />

bold iA63, the first iHome system to<br />

sport a mechanical rotating dock, an<br />

elegant design. Continuing its string<br />

of firsts, the company will later this<br />

year debut the iW1, the first portable,<br />

rechargeable system with AirPlay;<br />

before release, the $300 unit had<br />

already spawned a line of smaller,<br />

more affordable siblings for later in<br />

2011. It’s no wonder that the name<br />

“iHome” has become synonymous<br />

with iPod, iPhone, and iPad speaker<br />

systems of all shapes and sizes -<br />

products that are recognized for both<br />

innovation and growing ubiquity.<br />
