Altec Lansing inMotion Moondance GLOW
Introduced at the same time as the slightly more expensive inMotion MAX, the inMotion Moondance GLOW is a new take on the portable iPod dock speaker system from Altec Lancing. Aimed at individuals who prefer stationary speaker listening, the Moondance GLOW acts as an iPod driven stereo/alarm clock and does not contain any battery for portable use. With support for all dock-based iPods, as well as the same FM radio as the MAX, the GLOW features a larger amber LCD screen for the time, a wireless snooze remote (along side the regular remote), a mood lighting option, and the ability to use the iPod, radio or a regular alarm clock noise as the sound medium of consciousness retrieval.
MSRP $179.95
