Well, if you’re going to spend 14,000 on a concerto piano that is not actually a piano but instead a dining room table you had better at least make sure it has an iPod dock in it!
The way it works is the middle console of the table lifts up just like a grand piano and will fill the room with enticing tunes direct from your iPod. As you listen to the music you can sit and have evening cocktails and then a full dinner. (Simply get the silverware from a hidden drawer under the table!).
The music will not get in the way of delectable delights set on the table as it will play with or without the soundboard open. And all that for just $14,00! Seriously. Lovegrove & Repucci have set it all up for you complete with a recommended dinner music playlist.

iPod docks now are such a commonality that to be noticed one has to be different. The Phiaton Moderna iPod dock stands out by flashing colors of deep elegant red against jet dark black.

Finally the little guy has its very own iPod dock made exclusively for him and even compatible in size.
The Princeton Cuby dock for the second generation Shuffle is almost as small as the Shuffle itself fitting easily in your purse perhaps even your pocket. (think cargo pants!)
It weighs just 95 grams and measures 49X49X59mm. It connects with the Shuffle via the headphone output and to the PC via USB cable for transfer of files.
The Cuby is powered by three AA batteries so you can charge your Shuffle even while camping. It also has speakers for sharing the music with your friends a whole whopping 0.5 watts of power, but miles away from civilization…? It’ll be awesome!
The Cuby will go on sale in July and will cost 3980 Yen or about $33.

Covering all bases is the new Boston Innovative iMep - a boombox, iPod dock and DVD/CD player - all in one.
If you’re going to the beach, the park, on a long car trip, or anywhere else this is the gadget to have as it supports just about any electronic entertainment whim that you might wish to indulge.
Not only can you watch your DVD’s on a seven-inch LCD screen, but you can also plug in your favorite jammin’ CD. However if you don’t wish to bring your whole CD library in five or six boxes you can simply bring them compacted together in your trusty iPod and play away.
Now should you have forgotten your iPod at home, no worries you can always fall back on good old radio as you have an old-school AM/FM radio Tuner, and if you forgot a DVD and your iPod you can always try to tune into the basics with the integrated NTSC TV tuner.

Forge Europa has designed a jukebox that not only docks and plays all the music your iPod can hold, but it also adds a color scheme to the mix that makes it irresistible - if you have the money that is.
At just under $10,000 the jukebox is more for movies stars and football players or pubs looking to capitalize on a little mood lighting, nevertheless it is one cool jukebox.
The lighting is it’s main selling point. Forge Europa has replaced the traditional tube lighting of old jukeboxes with new environmentally-friendly LED lighting. The LED lighting not only lasts about as long as the jukebox but it also uses about the same amount of energy as traditional lighting.
The greatest thing about the new LED lighting however, is it’s chip technology. The technology allows for the lights to be customized in almost any color scheme and crossfade you wish, adding to the “mood” of the room.

This so reminded me of the talking little clock in Beauty and the Beast - I know it’s not quite a the same thing but I keep expecting it to start dancing and break out into song! and song it will break out into after all it is an iPod jingling alarm clock.
Those little bells will jangle out your favorite tunes as they are speakers in disguise, jingling out 6 watts of power.
The Dialive Alarm Sound System for the iPod,from Logitech,comes in white or black and has a dial on the back that will adjust for the size of the iPof. It is compatible with all full sized iPod Videos and the iPod Nano.
For those of you who love that snooze button it will ring off every nine minutes. It will charge the player and has a volume button on the back.
The Dialive Alarm Sound System will be available in mid-April for $70.
