Amazon.com Product Description The Emerson iTone iC200S Clock Radio offers a convenient iPod Docking Station and the exclusive SmartSet auto time setting system, so you'll always know the correct time. This compact system features a powerful amplifier and matching high fidelity speakers to produce high-quality, crystal-clear sound that you would normally expect from a much larger, more expensive audio system. The built-in iPod docking station allows you to play any dockable iPod model through the speakers of this system. It even automatically charges your iPod battery so you won't have to worry about running out of power. You can also choose to wake up to your favorite songs on your iPod in the morning. The iTone iC200S is easy to use. The digital turner automatically scans the AM and FM bands and locks in stations perfectly with no repetitive fine tuning required. You won't have to struggle to read the time on the 0.6 inch white LED clock display and you can save 20 of your favorite stations (10 AM and 10 FM) in the preset memory tuner for immediate recall at the touch of a button. The radio frequency also features a dimmer control so you can clearly see your choices. Never worry about bad weather conditions during the night short-circuiting your alarm thanks to Emerson's patented SmartSet Automatic Time Setting System, which automatically sets the clock to the correct year, month, date, day, and time the first time you connect the system to your AC outlet, and after every power interruption. It even adjusts for Daylight Saving's and Leap Years all on its own. Because everyone has a preference when it comes to deciding when and how it's best to start the day, the iTone iC200S's unique dual alarm system lets you wake up to your iPod, the radio or an electronic buzzer that starts softly and gradually increases in volume to wake you gently. It also lets you program one or both of the alarms for weekdays only, weekends only, or everyday operation. The clock also includes a programmable 99-minute sleep to music timer with auto shutoff and a 99-minute Nap timer that will wake you up after a nap without having to change your regular alarm settings. If you need a little extra sleep in the morning, there's also a snooze alarm that you can activate by pressing the Snooze button on the top cabinet or the remote control, or you can simply wave your hand in front of the "Touchless" Snooze Sensor on the front panel. The iTone iC200S is flexible and versatile, offering both ease of operation and customization options. Thanks to the compact 13-key remote control, you can operate all the major functions of your system from across the room. And if you still want to use some of your favorite devices with the iTone iC200, you can take advantage of the included stereo headphone jack and an Auxiliary Input Jack on the back panel, both of which make it a snap to connect older, non-docking iPods, MP3 players, and personal CD players.

Not bad June 13, 2008 Amy K. Green (Sylva, NC) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Looks great and sounds great and the remote is really nice, but sometimes the alarm does not go off. We haven't been able to determine why--it just doesn't go. I wouldn't rely on this as your primary alarm clock.
Loses correct time August 27, 2007 Kimberly C. Costantino (New York) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this item and was pleased with it the first two weeks. Then I noticed the time was wrong one day. I thought maybe the power went out, but hey!! isn't this supposed to reset time itself? I ignored, changed it to correct time and about a week and a half later it did the same thing. It was about 45 minutes off. Changed the time back again, then a couple of weeks later, same thing, it was an hour behind. I am exchanging it today for an iHome which is what I wanted in the first place. If it can not keep time and wake me up at the right time for school, what good is it?
Piece of Junk--Beware! May 17, 2007 Aimee L. Talbot (Newberry, SC USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had two of these. The first one died after a few months. The second one lasted about a week. The time is now showing a constant 32:50, whatever that might be. The second unit hummed quite loudly while playing music, and the display is too bright even on its dimmest setting. You can use it as a nightlight. I hate these and wish I still had the box so I could take it back. Not recommened at all!
Buyer beware: no quality control? January 8, 2007 Joe Shlabotnick 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased 3 of these units and had to return each as they emitted a loud 60-cycle hum when turned on, with or without an iPod connected. Evidently Emerson doesn't check these things before they leave the factory. So: buyer beware!
Without the hum, this might have been an OK unit, except for the excessively bright digital display, with no way to turn it down.
Screams for an external antenna January 5, 2007 Darren Lathen 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Device is chock-full of neat features, like the built in back up battery, the self-setting clock, the preset radio stations and digital tuner, and the heat-sensitive snooze button that lets you just wave your hand in front of the display rather than whacking random buttons until silence is restored.
The sound quality is respectable.
The greatest trouble I have is with getting a clear radio signal, AM or FM. You can the alarm at night and have excellent clarity while your hand is on the device, but when it goes off in the morning and you are two feet away, prepare for an earful of static. I should add that I live in a one-story single-family home - so I'm not in a huge metal building - other radios I own with external antennae have excellent reception.
