Oxnard, CA – February 23, 2008 – Scosche Industries (www.scosche.com), an award-winning innovator of mobile electronics and iPod accessories, announces the availability of its new passPORT Home Dock charging adapter for iPod docking stations. Similar to the 2009 CES Innovations Award Wining Scosche passPORT for car integration systems, the passPORT Home Dock was specifically designed to fix the charging error associated with several iPod docking stations and enables charging for the iPhone 3G, iPod touch Gen 2, and iPod nano Gen 4.
The Scosche passPORT Home Dock is a “Made for iPod” certified product, and is compatible with most docking stations that have a universal dock. One of the coolest features of the passPORT is that it accepts the inserts that are included with every iPod to ensure a snug fit. The passPORT passes through all audio, video and data functionality. However, if the iPod dock does not initially support the audio or video functionality, the passPORT will not enable these features. Each passPORT Home dock comes with the dock adapter for the BOSE SoundDock I units.
“The passPORT Home Dock provides a cost effective solution for anyone that wants to use their new iPhone 3G or iPod on an older dock that does not support USB 5 volt charging” said Kas Alves, Executive Vice President of Scosche Industries. “Scosche engineers developed the product to ensure all audio, video and data functionality of the iPhone 3G an iPods are passed directly through the passPORT Home Dock.”
The passPORT is priced at $39.99 MSRP and will be available at Wal-Mart stores starting in May, Apple.com in March, and is now available at Amazon.com and Scosche.com. For additional information and a video demonstration please visit http://www.scosche.com/products/productID/1695.
