SDI Technologies proudly presents the new i-Home iH8, yet another iPod dock with an alarm clock. The iH8 is the new updated version of the i-Home iH5, and is compatible with all iPods. The new version has a new design that?s very similar to the , and a LCD screen that’s large enough to tell what time it is, or which song is playing.

The i-Home iH8 is equipped with two 3W speakers, and comes with a remote control. You can use it with the AC adapter or with batteries. As expected, you can wake up to the sound of your favourite tunes, or with the FM/AM radio. The iH8 has a dimmer function so the light from the screen won?t bother you while you?re sleeping, and a sleep timer that can be set to reduce the volume of the songs gradually when you?re falling asleep.

Football (or Soccer) has managed to influence the designers of gadgets for some time; we have seen many different items that follow this sport inspiration. Yet the design of this MP3 player though football related, looks remarkably like the core of uranium that you see in films when the villains are preparing their nuclear strike.

This simple design is probably one of the most distinctive shaped MP3 players that are available on the market today; its lines and details make it a very desirable item indeed. Size wise it is only a mere four and half centimeters across which further makes this very attractive, to put it into perspective it is only about the size of a small orange, so it can be quite easily be put into a pocket or even used as the manufacturers suggest on a key chain, but it might be worth taking the ear phones when you open the front door to your house.

As for the features of the player, even though it is small in size it does still have a OLED screen of 80 x 48 resolution, a stopwatch, can receive up to thirty of the preset FM radio stations and comes with 256 mb, 512 mb and 1 gb of internal memory, so this MP3 has all the desired qualities along with a great design.

Prices will start at around $62.

Creative unveiled its new $39.99 ZEN Stone. ZEN Stone is a tiny 1GB MP3 player can hold up to 250 songs and can operate for 10 hours on a single charge (12 hours for the iPod Shuffle). A wide palette of colors is also available: black, blue, green, pink, red and white.

“The Creative ZEN Stone, at just $39.99, opens up a huge new market for MP3 players,” said Creative chairman and CEO Sim Wong Hoo. “This is an incredible price for everyone to get a superior quality MP3 player capable of holding up to 250 songs. Whether it’s your only player or a second player to take with you anywhere, the low price lets you think of MP3 players in a whole new way. You can loan it to a friend just like you would a CD or a mix tape and not have to worry about it, but you’ll like it so much that you’ll want another, so you always have one with you.”

The ZEN Stone will also come to market with the $39.99 Creative TravelSound ZEN Stone which turns the MP3 player into a portable speaker system. The TravelSound ZEN Stone will be available in black or white and can operate for 20 hours with two AAA batteries.

The ZEN Stone and the TravelSound ZEN Stone will be available at online retailers and in B&M stores on May 14.
