Give Me One Good Reason Why Anyone Would Need a Thermos-Like iPod Dock

When most homes have so many iPod docks there’s invariably one being used as a doorstop, it takes an awful lot of innovation to flog a new one to the masses. Will Sony’s SRS-V500IP thermos-speaker-like dock work? Undoubtedly, no. While it’s not actually a thermos sitting in the dock (I know, disappointing right?), the design…

Upscale Burger Kings Douse Japanese Patrons with “Musical Showers”

I haven’t been to Burger King in a long while, but if the States implemented the “musical shower” heads that the Japanese experience in their “upscale” Burger Kings, I could be enticed back into the glutinous fold one last time. Fancy name aside, these showers are pretty simple: Customers plug their iPhone or iPod into…

Hoodie With Earbuds Instead of Strings Is Greatest iPod Accessory of All

Hoodies have strings around the neck, right? Have you EVER used those strings? Why you’d want to tighten a noose around your neck, I’ll never know. The HoodieBuddie cleverly replaces the strings with earbuds; the pocket contains a 3.5mm jack. All you need to do is whack your iPod into that 3.5mm jack, hiding in…

Minimalist iPhone Dock Doubles as Minimalist Shelf

This spartan shelf contains all your traditional iPhone/iPod touch docking essentials and little else. Speakers, dock, axillary out—that’s about it, with the caveat being it’s also a wood shelf capable of supporting about 55 pounds. Called the Finite Elemente Hohrizontal 51 (spelling is correct), the shelf/dock costs $660 (whistle), and includes a few more finishes…

Apple Banning Protective Screen Film From Stores

According to iLounge, Apple is instituting a ban on all protective screen film products from its online and retail stores starting in May. It’s a move that’ll take away some of Apple’s most popular third-party products. But what for?

Get All Matchy-Matchy With JVC’s iPod Nano SP-A130 Portable Speaker

Are black, silver, pink and blue the most popular iPod Nano colors? According to JVC, yes, yes they are. The SP-A130 speaker not only matches those Nanos in size, but also shade. Whilst I have a blue Nano knocking around somewhere, I do wish they’d used the same metallic paint that Apple uses. To blast…

Mophie Juice Pack Doubles iPod Touch 2G’s Battery Life, Ass Size

The iPod Touch 2G has finally gotten its own $100 Mophie Juice Pack, which promises to double the device’s battery life. Recommended, with one caveat: it looks awfully fat on the super-slim new Touch. [Mophie] https://gizmodo.com/mophie-juice-pack-for-iphone-3g-lightning-review-it-do-5063778

Dexim Shu-Lip Adds Direct Headphone-To-USB Donglage To the New Shuffle

Remember how you could just plug the original Shuffles into USB and have it act as a thumbdrive as well as sync? This $10 dongle for the new Shuffle essentially does the same thing. Ditching the dock cord, the Shu-Lip mates directly to the headphone jack on one end for immediate USB insertion. Adding yet…

Yuen’To Music Ball is Great for Listening to Music, Bopping Heads

Clearly a product of the deep-sea geothermal vent creature school of cuteness, the Yuen’To Music Ball is an adorable, albeit expensive, powered portable speaker. Unlike most products in this category, the Music Ball was designed with usability in mind. This foamy ball will sit anywhere, dangle or swing during playback, demanding no support beyond your…

Creative TravelSound i80, a Tight-Fitting Home for iPod nano

The Creative TravelSound i80 is small sheath that you can just slide your iPod nano into. Ooo, that’s a tight fit, baby. Once it’s nestled inside, its mini speaker blasts the tunes, sounding crystal clear for its size. Well, its sound has a rather hot high end, but what do you expect from such a…

Corega iPod Dock, a Micro Boombox for shuffle

The iPod shuffle doesn’t have to feel left out of the iPod dock derby any more, because now it has its own ultra-portable speaker system from Corega Japan that matches up perfectly with the shuffle’s five krazy kolors. The laws of physics might keep this microdock from sounding genuinely kick-ass, but its claimed 200Hz-16kHz frequency…

Ghetto Blaster Nouveau is No Less Annoying

Here’s a redesign of that annoying ghetto blaster from the ’70s and ’80s, but this one is more ergonomic, with a shape that naturally hangs on the shoulder. There’s plenty of room inside the top section for a nice big bass speaker, while the extended part that hangs down your back gives those big bass…

iPod, Well-Hung with Hangman

The unfortunately named Hangman attaches to your iPod’s universal dock connector on one end and a belt loop or anything else (a nipple piercing?) on the other. Plus, it helps manage that pesky wire, too, letting you unravel just the right amount, and then you can completely wrap it up around it when you’re done.…
