Altec Lansing Launch the First Apple Endorsed iPhone Docking Station
Altec Lansing, a division of Plantronics, Inc. (NYSE: PLT) today
announced the release of its newest iPod, iPod Touch and iPhone docking
station. The Altec Lansing T612 is the first docking station
endorsed by Apple to pair with the soon to be released iPhone as well as
Apple’s other portable music devices including the iPod, Nano and iPod
Touch. Made to complement the iPod Touch and iPhone’s striking design,
the T612 extends your iPod’s high-end audio capabilities with
beautifully transparent music reproduction.
The T612 is specifically designed to be shielded from GSM phone
interference and is protected from the annoying intermittent noises and
distortion common when a mobile device is used near a speaker system. In
addition the T612 enables the iPhone to be used without switching to
‘flight mode’ so you’ll never miss a call while playing music. When a
call comes in the T612 gives the call priority by interrupting the music
and recommencing at the conclusion of the call.
“Altec Lansing engineer all its products using exceptionally high
quality standards which is why the T612 has been endorsed by Apple for
use with the soon to be released iPhone” said Chris Brown, National
Retail Sales Manager, Plantronics Australia and New Zealand. “Some
people say that seeing is believing but when you hear the quality of the
sound from the T612 you’ll understand why we think that hearing
is believing.”
The T612 has four specially engineered speakers which reproduce music
across the full audio spectrum. The docking station features XdB
bass-enhancement technology to create great sounding bass without the
need for a subwoofer.
The T612 will also recharge your iPod, and gives you control at your
fingertips with the included wireless remote so that you can control
track selection, volume and treble/base. The chic design will also look
good in any room in your home either on a table or mounted to the wall.
The T612 also gives you the option to connect your MP3 or CD player at
the same time as your iPod.
Pricing and availability
The Altec Lansing T612 docking station has a RRP of $399.00 and will be
distributed by Roadhound Electronics, Anyware Computer Accessories and
Amber Technology.
