Cambridge SoundWorks has updated their SoundWorks line of personal music systems with the new SoundWorks Radio 735 and the SoundWorks Radio CD 745. Both personal music systems are high performance table radios and feature support for attaching a dock for iPods, Creative ZENs, or other MP3 players. The radio bundles come with an iPod dock as well as a single remote controlling both radio functions and iPod navigation. If you want Creative ZEN support, you’ll need to purchase the ZEN dock separately.
