Tivoli NetWorks Radio Going Into Production

Tivoli's awaited NetWorks Radio is finally going into production this week and it's looking quite different from what we saw previously. The $600 unit features a Global Portal accessible via the system's Ethernet and Wi-Fi, allowing you to listen to music from all over the world. In addition, the unit can interface with PCs (for DRM-free WMAs, MP3s and Real Audio) and features USB for reading music off of various mass storage devices. The inclusion of a stereo speaker or CD drive will cost extra—which is a Tivoli standard. And while we're sure it sounds great, $600 is still a lot to pay for an internet radio...even if it comes in various "furniture grade" styles of wood casing.

Tivoli Model One (Thankfully) Limited Edition

Tivoli is offering a limited edition version of their Model One from Scandanavian glass artist Per B. Sundber. Surrounded in hand-crafted crystal, only 30 models will be sold at $4,200 a pop (about $4,100 of that is for the decoration). Oh, and we don't expect you to buy it. We're simply offering further evidence as to why people generally stick fruit, flowers and candles in their crystal. [tivoli via technabob]
Update: This limited-edition crystal Model One is not made by or affiliated with Tivoli Audio.

Another iPod Dock, This One is Different, We Promise

Tivoli Audio has released this beast of a dock called the iYiYi. It has all of the same features as most iPod docks including alarm clock, AM/FM radio, remote control, etc. But this one is different because—well—just look at it. It is hideous! Sure it can hold the iPod nice and play music decently, but what the hell is with the shape? Also the screen appears to be mostly useless and the backing is also ugly as sin. That's why we love it! Anything that can make someone throw up a little in their mouth is definitely worth a thumbs up from us. Don't forget about the name, iYiYi, what the hell—seriously? More »
