Can anyone take a camera-phone picture of it? Would be neat to see what it is before I make the trek to Costco to check it out or if they even have it.
I picked a unit up today at Costco. There is a $20 instant coupon that makes it $99 out the door. Has a feature called iTunes tagging that allows you to push a button when you hear a song you like and the next time you dock your iPod to iTunes it pulls the identifies the song for potential purchase. It is a clock radio with snooze feature. Dual bass opennings in the rear. Phone and line out, aux in, Video out, iPod dock, and remote.

The sound is quite excellent IMHO for a $99 clock radio. The LCD provides station call sign and song title and the tuner is precise as it is digital vs analog. The Eq presets allow for ROCK, POP, CLASSIC, JAZZ, BASS, and NORMAL. Per the OP's statement, can't quite fine tune here but "but the presets are suitable choices". The unit is quite heavy for it's size (really not as much plastic as you would expect). The volume and tuning selectors have some tactile feel to them. The remote appears to be made out of thick black anodized aluminum. Overall, I am suprizingly quite please and will definitely keep the unit.

The HD radio sound is quite excellent IMHO for a $99 clock radio. iPod also sounds fantastic. The LCD provides station call sign and scrolling song title and the tuner is precise as it is digital vs analog. The Eq presets allow for ROCK, POP, CLASSIC, JAZZ, BASS, and NORMAL. Per the OP's statement, can't quite fine tune here but "but the presets are suitable choices". The unit is quite heavy for it's size (not as much plastic as you would expect). The volume and tuning selectors have some tactile feel to them. The remote appears to be made out of thick black anodized aluminum. Volume at max will fill an average room with little distortion. Not quite powerful enough to replace a full sized receiver for party mode. Overall, I am suprizingly quite pleased and will definitely keep the unit.

It has extenal connections for AM loop and FM antennas. You could still call it a glorified iPod device or a glorified clock radio if you want. For the price I think it performs very well either way at this price point.

It says plays and charges any docking iPod (including Nano). It comes with various adapters in the box. I don't that specific unit so I can't test for you.
