A new iPod/iPhone speaker system is being promoted by Altec Lansing at CES right now. It is known as the Altec Lansing T612 and you’ll find it will cost around $200.

The Altec Lansing T612, which should be available in February, is a digital audio system with an integrated dock for compatible iPods and the iPhone. Sound is provided through the T612 via neodymium speakers and bass enhancement technology. A wireless remote included with the system offers iPod navigation functionality for options like volume and track selection.

Here’s another Spykee robot to go along with your Spykee Vox and the Spykee Miss. I won’t comment on what it looks like he is doing to that iPhone from behind, that’s his business.

The Spykee Cell is another build-it-yourself robot from Meccano. It’s remote controlled via Bluetooth from a cellphone and can move and snap pictures, then transmit them back to your cellphone for storage. The loudspeaker module gives it the capability of becoming a hands-free set, if you want to speak and hear through the robot.

NAD Electronics is getting ready for the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show by showcasing products it will be introducing for the coming year. One of these is the NAD IPD-1 iPod dock, priced at around $150.

The NAD IPD-1 is designed to work with other NAD A/V products, though we assume it will work with non-NAD gear as well. With this dock one can output audio and video signals from it to a connected home entertainment system via gold-plated RCA jacks and S-video. It also charges your iPod’s battery.

Alpine Electronics has always had a knack for developing interesting electronics for the automobile. Its newest in-car iPod controller, the eX-10, is certainly no exception. It’s priced at around $200.

The Alpine eX-10 is designed to work with a car’s factory installed audio system to deliver iPod music and Bluetooth interaction. It consists of a dash-top unit and remote control. Alpine says the eX-10 is its first iPod plug and play product, connecting to any dock-enabled iPod via a cable. With this one can listen to iPod music via FM transmission or line out. The dash-top unit’s display and remote let one view and control a variety of iPod functions.

Logic3 is marked today as the first to launch a speaker dock made specifically for the iPhone, which not surprisingly has been named the i-Station Traveller for iPhone. The system consists of a couple 4-watt, 35mm neodymium driven speakers and a dock that can accommodate the iPhone either vertically or horizontally.

To help make the Traveller more travel friendly the speakers will actually slide together to enclose the docking area and make the whole works only 170mm wide. The device is also compatible with any iPod or any media player that has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. We’re thinking that the iPhone probably connects through the headphone jack as well.

The iPhone speaker dock is expected to be available soon from Logic3 retailing for around $60.

There are quite a few accessory speakers systems for the Apple iPod, but few have the dock and speakers packaged together for this kind of price, and we’re not talking real cheap. This $449.99 iFi speaker system from Klipsch comes with a docking station with adapters for your iPod, a powered subwoofer, two satellite speakers and an RF remote control that can run the system and your iPod from just about anywhere in your house.

The company says the iFi works with most iPods using the adapters, including the iPod mini, iPod Nano, and iPod video. The earlier iPods and first gen Shuffle can’t dock but still can connect through an audio port. The system comes with one remote but can work with up to six if you want one for each room or just keep misplacing them.

iSkin is known for making a number of protective accessories and cases for Apple products, handheld games and other gadgets you would like to keep safe. Now they have released the iSkin revo protective cover for the iPhone. The revo protector covers up all the iPhone surfaces including all ports and controls with a “Sure Grip” anti-microbial silicone material that improves its grip, keeps it from sliding around and can help protect it from shock damage when dropped or bumped.

The revo cover also has a privacy film that you can layer over the touch screen which works similar to a privacy screen for a computer monitor letting you see the screen straight-on, but those trying to sneak a peak from an angle see a highly tinted or black view. Also, to further protect that fancy multi-touch screen iSkin provides a Visor, which is …

This little Music Phone Adapter extension cord lets you keep your normal headphones on while taking a call with the iPhone. When you plug in a normal set of headphones and listen to your iTunes tunes you can receive a phone call that you’ll have no problem hearing them but they won’t be able to hear you.

Otterbox is well-known for making tough and waterproof cases for mobile phones, PDA’s, iPod’s and even cases to keep your cigars safe and dry, so it’s no surprise to see that they have one coming out for the Apple iPhone. But it is a surprise to see that they don’t have one out yet nor do they even have a set date. The company has only said that the case is still months away from being released.

The design shown here looks promising with a cover that gives the iPhone a “semi-rugged” protection and completely covers the device including touchscreen with a patented membrane that should still allow full functionality. The buttons are are all accessible by pass-through buttons on the case and plugs will cover up the headphone and dock ports which can be removed to utilize them without removing the entire case.

If you’re …

If you are looking for accessories to protect your iPhone from scratches, accidental drops and related wear and tear then perhaps one of the new items from Macally is up your alley.

The company has now released several handy iPhone friendly products to help you out and at decent enough prices. The mCase and mSleeve ($19.99) offer two slightly different ways to protect the corners and sides of your iPhone while allowing for ease of accessibility while the mPouch ($19.99, pictured) transforms into two position stand to keep your iPhone upright and always facing you.

I was browsing at the local Portland area Apple store yesterday and came across a pile of cool-looking iPhone cases from Incase. One in particular was this rubberized protective cover that fits tight on the iPhone and gives it a protective layer from bumps and scratches without increasing the size much at all. It also provided a better grip with the rubber material.

The design on the outside is what Incase calls a “topo pattern” which is inspired from the lines showing the elevation changes on topographical maps, and it actually looks pretty cool. Of course it keeps the front open for full access to the touchscreen and has holes for the camera and ports so you can charge it without taking the case off.

These molded rubber cases run just under $30 and come in colors of …

About a month ago we brought you a preview of the iPhone armband coming from Belkin, and today Belkin has officially launched their iPhone accessories on their website.

Along with the armband, Belkin is offering an acrylic case that custom fits the iPhone with a stand to hold it upright and horizontal for watching videos. The case has a removable belt clip, access to the controls and ports and increases the size of the iPhone only slightly while adding some protection.

Additional iPhone accessories include a slim-fit leather case ($29.99), some stereo cables and a headphone adapter ($10.95) that both fit the special recessed 3.5mm stereo jack.

Since today’s the day the public can actually get their hands on an iPhone, Apple thought they may want to get some accessories too and unveiled the accessories lineup on their website, showing off headsets, adapters, travel cables and of course docks.

For $129 you can get the black iPhone Bluetooth headset which delivers 5.5 hours of talk time and up to 72 hours of standby time. The headset comes with the iPhone dual dock which indeed will hold and charge both the iPhone and the headset. It also comes with a USB travel cable (pictured here) which can also charge both the iPhone and the iPhone Bluetooth headset at the same time. Both the dual dock and and travel charger can be purchased separately for $49 and $29, respectively.

The accessory page also has a blurb on it about a new “Works with iPhone” logo …

Measuring only 59mm tall and weighing 95 grams, a Japanese company has come up with a dock that can match the second generation iPod shuffle in its tiny-ness.

The Cuby dock will hold the iPod shuffle similar to how its standard dock connects through the headphone jack where it can charge the iPod sync up files via a USB connection. The dock also has two tiny speakers putting out 0.5 watts. The Cuby from Princeton will retail for around $33 in Japan and is expected to be available sometime in July.
