Macworld Conference & Expo 2008

Booth #926, South Hall

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Macally, a world-class designer and manufacturer of next-generation mobile and in-home electronics, today unveiled its new Macally FlexTune portable stereo system. Supporting the Apple iPhone, iPod touch and iPod classic, the Macally FlexTune lets customers enjoy music and video with exceptional sound and the choice of docking these devices horizontally or vertically.

The announcement comes on the first day of Macworld Conference & Expo at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Macally will show the FlexTune along with its full line of accessories and peripherals for the iPod, iPhone and Mac computer products at its booth, number 926, in the South Hall.

“The Macally FlexTune will help customers get the most from the widescreen video viewing and enhanced sound capabilities from their iPhone and iPod touch,” said Andrew Saldana, Macally’s vice president of sales and marketing. “We felt consumers would appreciate having the flexibility to choose if they wanted to place their iPhone or iPod into the cradle of the FlexTune for a vertical or horizontal viewing experience. In addition to delivering great sound, being easy to use and having a sophisticated design, the FlexTune is an all-in-one docking and charging station for letting iPhone and iPod customers enjoy music and video.”

The unique FlexTune portable stereo system lets the iPhone and iPod be docked in a horizontal orientation, which is ideal for watching widescreen movies and video on an iPhone or iPod touch. It can also be docked vertically for video viewing on an iPod classic.

Stylish and space saving in a silver and black casing with a small footprint, the FlexTune portable stereo system looks great and sounds even better. The 1500mW power output per channel offers exceptional stereo sound without a headset or bulky wired external speakers.

With easy-to-access buttons for play, pause, next, previous, stop, and volume control, the FlexTune offers the functionality for avid music and movie aficionados. The FlexTune charges the iPhone and iPod products when docked and offers auto turn on/play or turn off when iPhone and iPod touch is docked or undocked.

The FlexTune can be powered by an AC adaptor (included) or by four “AA” batteries. The line-in jack lets customers take advantage of the excellent sound quality for listening to other music players.

The Macally FlexTune portable stereo system for iPhone and iPod has a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $59.99, and will be available at leading electronics and technology retailers throughout the United States at the end of February 2008.
