Retro Alarm Clock iPod Dock – Wake Up To Your MP3 Music

This Retro Alarm Clock iPod Dock is an extremely simple idea however it is probably something that nobody would reject if offered one free of charge.

Those old-style alarm clocks which are round and have bells on top and the hammer which blasted you into next week instead of simply waking you up calmly.

This however, is not so alarming. The bells on top are actually discreet 360o speakers and where the clock-face itself should be is actually an iPod dock. As with any alarm clock there are several features including snooze and volume.

The retro iPod alarm clock is stylish and functional, but most of all, retro which is what I like about it. The colours are vivid, can match your colour of iPod and it looks pretty authentic (bar the iPod). There is a neat volume switch on the back and the great piece of kit is fully adjustable for different types of iPod.

When you plug in your iPod it automatically switches to clock mode and you can set your alarm as you do normally on your iPod through the settings menus. This is useful because you don’t have to lie in bed with headphones shoved in your ears which are extremely uncomfortable and impractical to say the least.

There are three different styles. A simple white with a grey border which is great for the older generations of iPods which fit the colour scheme. For a bit of contrast you may go for the black alternative, especially if you have a black iPod. And for those of you are a fan of brighter colours, there is a pink and white option.

So there really is something for everyone when it comes to these Retro Alarm Clock iPod Docks – I am impressed with these great music-themed gadget clocks which would make a great present for anyone you know who likes listening to music on their iPod.
