iTam Tam iPod Dock Is Strangely Unique, Expensive

Looked kind of like a toilet when I saw it at first, I guess thats next an iJohn, no no, an iKrapper. Maybe an iCan, and Obama's campaign will have some tagged with his slogan. I could get used to saying something like " Ok I gotta go drop the kids off at the iPool" or "I'm taking the browns to the super iBowl" lol

i love its unique design, but i wouldn't that much on any stereo system. i would try one of these ipod docks, although they are not good as those expensive ones.

you all didn't get it.

the reflexion is actually a real part of the object.
the object is shaped like an "L", and this part has a shadow over it...

open your minds

Nah. This product just breaks physics. It's in the fine print when you buy one.

Wow, you can actually see the TOP of the damned thing in the reflexion on the floor. It took WORK to make the reflexion that bad. Photoshop by M.C. Escher.

@Way: Way No (love saying that).

he meant the one on the floor it is SO wrong ...

someone in marketing who is good with a MAC did that one.

But yes the Icons do set us for the better one.

Maybe its an illusion you have to hold from your face a inches, and it all becomes clear.

How about at least buy a Wadia iTransport and get a dock that does something new...

@flyboy: I think he meant the icons on the iPod. They're not the same in the reflection as on the device's screen. It's stupid.

@CampSteve: only true designers have reflections these days, maybe cos its not a Mac?

I love how reflections are such an "in" thing right now that non-designers are adding them regardless of whether they make physical sense or not. Heeeelarious.

That speakers looks like its a 12" speaker and it probably can deliver some good sound.
Or maybe it has smaller speakers and the middle part is a bass/treble speaker.

@ara: The top half is rendered - and they gave the high res tif file to an intern who 'knows' photoshop.

so they did the reflection on a layer by flipping (cos they're Gen Y - lazy) and have no clue about perspective and this is the result.

Could be one of mine even...except the Gen Y thing would be so wrong.
