I have a smaller iHome and on the back there should be an on-of switch. You know your iHome is on if there is a red light glowing on the front of your iHome.
Yes, the iHome does charge the iPod.
An iHome is a speaker that you can plug your ipod into and sometimes includes a clock.
I don't know BUT Apple did not make the ihome.
Ihome speakers can be purchased at such websites as: www.amazon.com or www.ihome.com.
iHome was founded in 2005 by SDT Technologies. iHome offers clock radios, alarm clocks, headphones and speakers for the iPod, iPad and iPhone.
The person who created ihome electronics is Micheal Jackson. Yes, the singer.
It depends which one you want.The ihome 290 around $100

The ihome ip1 has great bass with subwoofers and is cheap
You don't need an iHome, but it is a nice accessory to play music out loud.
