Wake up and fall asleep to iPod or AM/FM radio with the IC618B. When you wake, your iPod will be charged and ready to go. Dual alarms with gradual wake ease you into your day and an advanced remote allows you to control everything from across the room. AM/FM Radio
Enjoy your favorite radio stations through full-range speakers with the digital stereo AM/FM radio. Keep your favorites easily accessible with 10 AM and 20 FM presets, and use the Last Channel memory feature if you change the station then change your mind. The radio also features a mute function and EQ presets to dial in your preferred sound. Docking Station for iPod
The IC618B features a certified iPod dock, so you can enjoy your favorite iPod tunes. It includes inserts to fit most iPod players, and you can control the iPod from the device's control panel. While your iPod is docked, it charges, so when you take off you'll have a full charge. Digital Alarm Clock
Get to work on time after gradually waking to iPod, radio, or buzzer. There's a snooze button, of course, so you can grab a few more minutes of sleep. The sleep function lets you drift off to your favorite radio station or iPod tunes. Finally, the dual alarm lets you set two separate alarm times. The included remote will control docked iPods, along with the radio tuning and volume. And the 3.5-mm auxiliary input lets you connect external audio devices like MP3 or CD players, adding a few more listening options. What's in the Box
AC/DC adapter, remote control (remote battery included), iPod dock inserts, manual

 nice on style but short on function December 29, 2008

This alarm clock/docking station was to replace the old clock radio I had for over ten years. I liked the feature of waking to music from my iPod. However, after a couple mornings, some obvious design features that were missing have forced me to go back to my old dependable clock radio alarm. Those drawbacks are:
1) not being able to dim the clock (my clock/alarm typically sits just a few feet from my pillow)
2) when I programmed music from my iPod to wake me in the morning, the volume setting at the beginning went from loud to ridiculous in just seconds. I tried turning the volume all the way down on my iPod and the clock, but it still starts out at way too high a setting of volume and goes to the point of distortion very quickly. What's with that?
Visually, this is a nice looking clock/radio/iPod docking station but I feel there are better products out there for the same price or a little more money. This one is going back!!

Overall this is a good clock and the speakers are very clear. My iPod Touch fit just fine and it was always charged afterwards.
But even with these good things, I must warn people about this items main purpose: this is a poor alarm. The controls are a little confusing but I still managed just fine to set the alarm. My biggest complaint is in the alarm's volume; the alarm starts out soft but it quickly gets louder and louder until it is at an almost deafening volume. This will be good for people who have to get up but I am planning on using this item in college in my dorm but it is way too loud for the close quarters of a dorm room, especially when another person will be in the room.
I just want to warn people of this one thing so you don't have to return the clock like I am.
