"Altec Lansing has a long history of engineering innovative, high-performance audio products: such as the first speakers used in a feature-length talkie movie in 1927 and the first iPod audio dock in 2003," said Vicki Marion, president, Altec Lansing. "We believe Apple enthusiasts will welcome the impressive sound, music controls and call support features that make the T612 a perfect companion for both the iPod and the iPhone." iPhone In-Call SupportThe T612 complements key features of the iPhone, including support for incoming calls. If a call comes in while music is playing, the iPhone gives priority to the call by pausing the music. Once the call is completed, the iPhone is re-docked in the T612 and the music resumes playing at the same song and place.

Designed after Altec Lansing’s successful M602 digital audio player, the T612 features powerful neodymium speakers and XdB™ bass-enhancement technology for exceptionally rich audio reproduction and solid bass response for a desktop system of its size. Connections and ControlsThe T612 sports Apple’s Universal Dock to play and charge all iPhone and new-generation iPod models. In addition, the rear of the T612 provides a standard auxiliary-in jack for connection to older iPod models as well as other audio devices. The T612 comes equipped with a wireless remote for iPod song navigation functionality, featuring Power, Volume Down, Volume Up, Track Back, Track Forward, Play/Pause, and separate Bass, and Treble controls. Available in February 2008, the Altec Lansing T612 system will be sold at Apple retailers and www.alteclansing.com for $199.95 (U.S. MSRP).
