IXOS XMI308 - Small iPod dock delivers

Have an iPod? Like tubes? Today's your lucky day. IXOS has released a new dock for your iPod that is fairly minimalistic in its looks. Despite its small size, it still reportedly packs a punch.

I guess punch might be a strong word, but XMI308 supposedly outputs clear and strong sound. That's pretty good since it only has a pair of 1-inch drivers. You can power it by four AAA batteries, an AC adapter, or a USB cable. Bear in mind that the USB cable only transfers power, no data.

If you like the minimalistic look, you can pick one of these up for around $50. It does work with all current iPod models and has an input for other MP3 players.
