This is the iPod dock with portable, wireless rechargeable speakers that allow you to listen to music anywhere in your home.

This system uses 2 3/4″ spherical, wireless speakers that operate on a wide 915 MHz frequency that won’t interfere with other wireless devices. Each 3-watt speaker produces clear, vibrant sound up to 120′ away from the dock. The dock accepts most iPod models and transmits music to both speakers, which serve as stereo speakers when both are listened to in the same room (mono when used separately). The dock has a 3.5 mm audio jack that allows you to plug in external audio sources, such as a TV, radio, or other music player. Each speaker has a built-in rechargeable battery that allows for up to eight hours of operation from a two-hour charge. Dock plugs into AC.

Headphonies: Little Speakershttp://gizmoave.com/2009/01/01/headphonies/ http://gizmoave.com/2009/01/01/headphonies/#comments Thu, 01 Jan 2009 20:52:25 +0000 Salman Khan http://gizmoave.com/?p=2015 headphonies vinyl toy speaker audio sound

These pint-sized characters might look similar to other artist-designed vinyl toys, but take another look and you’ll notice that they don’t just look cool hanging out on your desktop, they’re actually functional.

Eran Weinberg’s Headphonies combine the appeal of funky designer vinyl toys with the utility of a portable speaker. Just plug your iPod or other medial player into the back of your Headphonie, and start cranking out the tunes.

Each 3-inch tall character features a unique, artist-created persona (and of course, a pair of tiny headphones). For portability, the mini-speakers have a built-in rechargeable battery that you can juice up with your USB port in about an hour.

Characters include Mad Ape,  Modern Hero, Anarchy, Ninja, Pink Bear, and a pair of nondescript black and white guys.  Since each design is a limited-edition, some styles are already sold out, so you’d better move quick to get the ones you want.

The entire collection can be found over at the Headphonies online shop for $30 (USD) each.
