Philips unveils iPod docking Wake-up Light |
I have never had a problem getting out of bed in the morning, my wife on the other hand is worse than my kids. For people who don’t wake up well, Philips has unveiled a new alarm clock called the Wake-up Light.
The clock has a traditional alarm built in and the iPod docking model can wake you to music from your playlist, FM radio, or different nature sounds. The big feature of the device is the light that simulates a sunrise.

Joining the ranks of all of those other
Philips has two new phones coming soon. The K700(pictured) and the X501. The K700 sports a full touchscreen display and is part of the Xenium family. It also features a 3.2-megapixel camera. Our guess is that you can expect good battery like with other Xenium handsets.
Philips has announced its expanded home theater lineup for 2009, with the HTS8160B Soundbar. The compact home theater setup includes a Blu-ray disc player with DVD and CD playback support, built-in speakers and a separate subwoofer.
Philips Europe has just introduced their new 22-inch monitor in the form of the Philips LightFrame T monitor. This new widescreen monitor comes with an unusual and odd, “cool blue” frame that glows and promises to reduce eye strain.
Mobile phone battery life is one of the most important factors to consider when buying a phone. And Philips has one that will last a long tme with the Philips X550. This phone apparently has a battery that can last up to a month in stand-by. Some sacrifices had to be made obviously.
It seems counterproductive to be buying a portable DVD player, what with Blu-Ray and all of the other options available to you, but if you are eyeing a new DVD player, check this out. The most interesting feature of the DCP951/37 from Philips is the retractable iPod dock.
We’ve been following this one for you for awhile now. And why wouldn’t we? Philip’s 52 inch LCD has us drooling. Now we have some price info to drop on ya, along with a June release in the UK.
Philips has introduced it’s Net TV service that will target it’s high-end TV line (the Philips 8000 and 9000 range), and allow you to surf only ceratin selected sites from your living room. Sadly, not everything from the Internet can be accessed. You’ll be restricted to a pre-determined set of sites like YouTube, TomTom, eBay, Funspot and MyAlbum among others.
The Cinema 21:9 is claiming to be the planet’s first cinema-proportioned LCD TV, so this should be the ultimate LCD to watch movies on. The 56 inch diagonal will also feature Ambilight technology around the borders. I know what you’re thinking. This isn’t real. Some of you will claim photoshop. We were skeptical too, but it turns out that it’s the real deal.
If you want to eliminate the need for multiple remote control units, Philips has updated their Prestigo Universal remote line-up with the SRT 9320 that features a 2.8-inch touchscreen LCD screen mixed with hard buttons. It’s a looker. The SRT9320 can control up to 20 devices and is completely programmable to enable multi-devices macro and learning modes.
