Amazon.com Product Description Wake to the sounds of your favorite iPod tunes with the Emerson iTone iC200BK clock radio. Offering a built-in iPod docking station and Emerson's patented SmartSet auto time-setting system, the iTone is the perfect bedroom, office, or kitchen stereo. The iTone's audio performance starts with its powerful amplifier and matching high-fidelity speakers, which combine to produce the type of high-quality, crystal-clear sound you'd normally expect from a much larger, more expensive audio system. The built-in iPod docking station, meanwhile, lets you play any dockable iPod model-- including the iPod mini, nano, and shuffle--through the system's speakers. The docking station also automatically charges your iPod battery so you won't have to worry about running out of power. Most importantly, you can choose to wake up to any song in your iPod catalog every morning. The iTone iC200BK is easy to use. The digital turner automatically scans the AM and FM bands and locks in stations perfectly with no repetitive fine tuning required. You won't have to struggle to read the time thanks to the 0.6-inch white LED clock display, while the integrated station presets (10 AM and 10 FM) make it a breeze to locate your favorite stations at the touch of a button. The radio frequency also features a dimmer control so you can clearly see your choices. And don't worry about bad overnight weather conditions short-circuiting your alarm, as Emerson's SmartSet automatic time- setting system automatically sets the clock to the correct year, month, date, day, and time the first time you connect the system to your AC outlet and after every power interruption. It even adjusts for daylight saving's time and leap years all on its own. Because everyone has a preference when it comes to deciding when and how it's best to start the day, the iTone iC200BK's unique dual alarm system lets you wake up to your iPod, the radio, or an electronic buzzer that starts softly and gradually increases in volume to wake you gently. It also lets you program one or both alarms for weekdays only, weekends only, or everyday operation. The clock even includes a programmable 99-minute sleep-to-music timer with auto shutoff and a 99-minute nap timer that wakes you after a nap without having to change your regular alarm settings. If you need a little extra sleep in the morning, there's also a snooze alarm that you can activate by pressing the snooze button on the top cabinet or the remote control, or you can simply wave your hand in front of the "touchless" snooze sensor on the front panel. The iTone iC200BK is flexible and versatile, offering both ease of operation and customization options. Thanks to the compact 13-key remote control, you can operate all the major functions of your system from across the room. And if you still want to use some of your favorite devices with the iTone iC200BK, you can take advantage of the included stereo headphone jack and an auxiliary input jack on the back panel, both of which make it a snap to connect older, non-docking iPods, MP3 players, and personal CD players. The iTone iC200BK measures 13.5 by 8.5 by 6.5 inches and comes with a 3-volt battery. What's in the Box Clock radio, remote control, 3-volt battery, user's manual.

Fantastic Product July 18, 2008 This is a fantastic product. Has self setting clock, dual alarm, I usually set one for music, and one for buzzer, the speakers are good, display is good, remote is very handy. Coming to the point, I tested about 18 Ipod docks from CC, BB and WM, side by side. The price ranges were from 19.99 to 169.99. To be honest, looking at the size of this unit, I hadnt even opened this box till I finished testing all the others. but when I tested this with others, the sound quality and features and remote, beat all the other products outright. I really dont understand why emerson stopped production on this units. I just see them only in clearance items. get one if you find one. worth it.
Just what I wanted. June 14, 2008 I had an Emerson dual-alarm clock radio and I was looking to replace it to accommodate my iPod. I was rather cautious after reading the mediocre reviews here, but I knew and trusted the brand and decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed. I have no problems with docking my iPod even with a EVO4 Duo for Ipod Classic 80GB Electra / Blue on. The dual alarms function exactly as I'd expected them to. The remote works fine and the touchless snooze is a cute but unnecessary feature.
My only nit-picks are cosmetic or outside of what I'd expect from a bedside clock-radio:
The readout does seem needlessly bright but I faced the clock directly & closed my eyes and could see no difference if I then covered my eyes with my hand.
The radio reception is not good at all, but I've never had a clock-radio with good reception and I now use the iPod anyways. It could come without a radio for all the interest I have in one.
Finally, the buttons on the top are small and spaced closely together. But after it is set the only thing they are necessary for is shutting the alarm off. Since either the alarm 1 or alarm 2 button works for this, I've had no problems with that either.
I have had NO buzzing problems from the speakers and the music from my iPod sounds just fine. It's not a high-end stereo and I don't expect it to be. It's a charging station with playback capability and dual alarms. The iTone does the job I wanted it to and does it very well.

Radio reception not the greatest and the display is so bright I can read by it.
It's OK February 8, 2008 It's very loud and does not take up much space. If u r interested in using it for your ipod only it's a great buy!the radio being built in the power cord wasn't a good idea it makes it difficult to pick up some stations. Otherwise i liked the product over all and was not disappointed in my purcahse
Too many buttons February 3, 2008 Groping for the alarm button in the morning is not easy. There are way too many buttons too close together make it user hostile.
We returned external speakers we bought for this thinking they had a buzz in them. The buzz was from the radio, not the external speakers.
The clock light is way too bright.
I will be shopping for a replacement.
