Nice, finally something to replace the Apple Hi-Fi I’ve had for a few years now. Just have to wait for the 5.5Gen 80GB iPod to die!

I recently bought the iMT800 and according to Altec Lansing the only difference between the iMT810 and iMT800 is that the 810 is Apple certified for the iPhone 4; however, the iMT800 works fine with the iPhone 4. You just have to order the iPhone 4 holder for the docking station directly from Altec, which is at no-cost expect for shipping. The iMT800 is selling for less than $200 on Amazon and on Altec’s website. It is well worth it!

The radio sounds good, but many people are complaining about the radio dying and battery operation does not work well. Google imt800 power cord. Go to amazon and read reviews on the imt810 about the issues this unit has. Its not good and there customer support seems to be on the poor side.
