|
Pure-Fi Express Plus Offers Omnidirectional Acoustics, Pure-Fi Anytime Makes the Perfect Nightstand Companion
Dubai, UAE - November 13, 2008 -- Whether you dock your iPod®, or your iPhone™, in the bedroom or crank up your favourite playlist in the living room, Logitech (SWX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) has a speaker dock for you. The Logitech® Pure-Fi Express Plus omnidirectional speaker for iPod or iPhone delivers great sound throughout your room, while the Logitech® Pure-Fi Anytime™ premium alarm clock for iPod or iPhone is the perfect nightstand companion. Both speakers are compatible with the first generation iPhone as well as the new 3G iPhone.
"Our research revealed that as digital music players, and especially the iPod, become more integral to our lives, we look for accessories to optimise the experience," said Mark Schneider, vice president and general manager of Logitech's audio business unit. "Our latest iPod speaker docks are designed to suit each person according to their individual needs, whether what's wanted is enhanced audio and portability or an alarm clock with innovative features such as motion sensing."
Logitech Pure-Fi Express Plus Featuring Omnidirectional Acoustics
A first for iPod or iPhone speaker docks, Pure-Fi Express Plus offers omnidirectional acoustics. An innovative speaker technology previously found only in expensive home-theatre systems, omnidirectional acoustics transmit sound evenly in all directions. If you love to dock, charge and listen to your iPod or iPhone when you're at home, at work, or even in your backyard, now you can enjoy rich, articulate sound and minimal distortion - from every corner of your room.
Pure-Fi Express Plus provides more than just great sound. For added portability, Pure-Fi Express Plus can run on AC or battery power and includes an integrated handle, making it easy to take your music from room to room. The new Logitech dock also features a wireless remote control. With a range of up to 10 meters, the remote control lets you instantly adjust volume, play, pause, fast forward, rewind, as well as offering Shuffle and Repeat buttons - all from the comfort of your sofa or favourite chair.
Logitech Pure-Fi Anytime: The Perfect Nightstand Companion
If you commonly dock your iPod or iPhone in the bedroom, Pure-Fi Anytime offers a full set of features, such as advanced motion-sending technology, that make it perfect for your bedside table - and ensure that you'll have a fully charged iPod or iPhone when you wake in the morning. To avoid the inconvenience of waking a sleeping partner, the motion-sensing backlight makes it easy to set your alarm without having to turn on the lights. The alarm clock's controls light up when you wave your hand over the speakers and the buttons automatically dim when you're done using it. And when you want to get a few minutes of extra sleep when your alarm goes off in the morning, you can simply wave your hand over the speakers and the motion-sensing technology will activate Snooze.
Pure-Fi Anytime also features an easy-to-read display that is clearly visible during the day and night. A recessed dock helps prevent you from accidentally knocking over your iPod or iPhone. Plus, Pure-Fi Anytime offers a digital AM/FM radio for those times when you want to give your iPod a break and enjoy live music, news and sports.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech® Pure-Fi Express Plus omnidirectional speaker for iPod or iPhone is expected to be available in the UAE end of December for a suggested retail price of AED 299. The Logitech® Pure-Fi Anytime™ premium alarm clock for iPod or iPhone is expected to be available in the UAE end of December for a suggested retail price of AED 359.
