...and of course the footnote is “Only one dock supports iPhone.”
If it worked with two iPhones, my wife and I would be very interested.
Oh well.

...and of course the first sentence is “... the ability to charge two iPhones or iPods at once”

Does this mean it’ll have shielded speakers and hence no interfernce when docked with an iPhone or a 3G?

if it says “Works with iPhone” there should be no interference issues with the iPhone and the speakers (allegedly).

The iLuv site says “only one dock supports iPhone” so no his and hers charging:-(

Actually it says it only supports one iPhone for playing music. It says that the charging of is supported for every device except 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen ipods.

Any idea if the wake to iPod feature supports selecting a specific playlist?
I hate sleeping to one song/playlist and waking to another.. More devices need this feature.
