I just bought two units as birthday presents for each of my girls for their iPhone 3Gs. My wife and I have our iPhone 3Gs connected to a Bose Wave in our bedroom. We also have Bose Soundock II that we use in our beach condo.
I have been enjoying Pandora and Internet Radio... and thought the girls would like it too, as well as having a charging dock.

Update:
The two iHome clock radios arrived today. Overall, I am pleased. The sound quality is about what I expected, and the integrated dock is a nice option for listening to music.
In no way does it compare to either my Bose Soundock II which we use for travel... or the Bose Wave Radio that I have in my bedroom. However, those are about $300 and $500 respectively. The girls are delighted with their new clock radios, and the sound is fine at moderate volumes.
If you get this... make sure that you use the procedure I described to get it for $99 rather than $129.
