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.

Samsung has revealed the Ultra Music F200. The handset is a spiritual successor to the Samsung narrow, pocket-friendly X830 swivel phone but shifts its attention to music with a digital amp and enhanced 3D audio. In contrast to the US-bound F300, however, the F200 won’t rely on internal storage for its media library; Samsung drops the internal storage from 1GB to 5MB and reliea instead on an easily accessible microSD card slot to keep the bulk of owner’s collection of MP3, OGG, or WMA tracks.
Controls are also simpler, photos reveal: the characteristic wheel and two-row number pad of the X830 are scrapped in favor of a simpler five-point directional pad and a wider three-row set of keys. Whether or not Bluetooth and a camera will reach the finished phone is unknown.

A launch date is also unavailable, though the device may follow the F300 through Sprint or another major US carrier within the next several months.
