iHomes takes home "Best of show" award [...]

I've chosen this article because it's a "continuation" of one of my previous articles 'Hotels dumb down alarm clocks for weary guests' in which they were introducing a new alarm clock that can be hooked-up to your own MP3 or CD player.

In this article, they have introduced a new alarm clock radio called iHomes that can play your iPod's songs and on which you can set-up the alarm with your own songs too. It is interesting because nowadays, more and more people have iPods and travel with it, so they created iHomes mainly to serve these customers. MP3 and iPods are somehow different (from their brand for example); before you could only hook your MP3 or CD player, now you can hook your iPod AND your MP3 of any other brand into the iHomes. Because why one should be more developed than another?

This facility increases guest satisfaction and guest loyalty, both for MP3 and iPods owners.
