The first thing you may notice about the SRS-GD50iP is the oversized subwoofer. Which makes the whole setup look a bit odd.

We’re used to seeing alarm clocks, digital photo frames, and iPod/iPhone docks that are boring and simple. But lately manufacturers have been delivering some more elegant products. Like the upcoming ICF-CL75iP, which features a crisp 7 inch color WVGA (800 x 480) LCD, 1GB of built-in storage, and a retractable iPod/iPhone dock.
Sony has a new ALTUS audio product range for the iPod/iPhone. The “premium” ALT-SA31iR multi-room iPod package is comprised of an iPod / iPhone docking station and a pair of wireless speakers, along with an AM / FM tuner and an LCD-equipped S-AIR remote commander.
