Putting two iPhone / iPod docks in an alarm clock is a simple and clever idea that’s so far only shown up in the JVC-PN7 (which we have and love), but it looks like iLuv’s getting in the game as well with the new iMM137. Apart from the two shielded iPhone 3G-compatible docks up top, it’s the usual iLuv kit with 5 watt jAura sound, an aux input, and dual alarms — not a bad deal for an MSRP of $129 that’ll almost certainly be lower at retail when this hits in September.

Something’s really wrong with the world if more than a few months pass by without a new iPod alarm clock from iLuv, so we suppose everyone’s a-okay for a few more months now. Announced today, the firm has introduced its first pair of HD Radio clocks, and sure enough, one of ‘em plays nice with Cupertino’s darling. The i169 would be that player, which offers up a mostly black motif, dual stereo speakers, remote, iPod dock, AM / FM / HD Radio reception, an auxiliary input and dual alarm settings for good measure. As for the currently available i168, it provides most everything you read up there sans the iPod compatibility, but then again, it only demands $89.99. What about the i169, you ask? It’ll set you back a cool $169.99 when it lands in “early May.” Full release waiting after the break.

iLuv’s trying to beat the coming rush of iPod accessories that’s set to drop at CES by releasing its product info early, and we can’t blame them — but these blurry prerelease photos of the i1255 DVD player / iPod dock (bottom) and the i399 BluePin II A2DP iPod speaker system aren’t helping the cause. The $129 i1255 features what’s sure to be resoundingly average DVD playback and menu-based onscreen iPod controls, but it’s the Bluetooth-enabled i399 that’s at least passably interesting here, with A2DP streaming and receiving capabilities, rhythm-sensitive blue LEDs, and speakerphone capabilities. Of course, our passing interest ends at the $229 pricetag, but maybe we’ll find it re-piqued when we check this stuff in person next week.

First things first: iLuv’s forthcoming Portable Video MP3 & DVD Player won’t play nice with the iPod touch, iPod classic or the new iPod nanos, but if you’re still rockin’ an older flavor, keep on reading. This Neiman Marcus exclusive boasts a fairly sexy black chassis, an 8.4-inch screen, touch-sensitive keypad controls, video out and an integrated dock for (last-generation) dock-connecting iPods. The unit will also handle DVD, VCD and audio / JPEG CDs, and there’s even a rechargeable Li-ion for moments when an AC outlet is just too far away. iLuv’s latest is set to ship later this month for $275, and you can feel free to click on through for another look.
