Sony introduces PMX-U55 PMP for China

As we’ve seen, Sony sure doesn’t hold back on its exclusive-to-China line of PMX PMPs, and it’s just tossed yet another new model into the mix, with the PMX-U55 helping to fill out the low-end of the spectrum (and pick up where the PMX-U50 left off). This one apparently comes in only a 2GB version, [...]

Bangin’ Music Parties Coming to a Spot Near You

The PodSpot is one large industrial sized speaker system designed for your wee iPod – or any other Mp3 player for that matter. It’s splash proof and designed to be rugged enough for outdoor events. Surprisingly it’s battery powered pushing a multitude of tweeters, horns and two 10″ subwoofers good enough for 24 hours. If [...]

Harman-Kardon MS100 all-in-one audio system will make your iPod look tiny

As you’ve probably garnered from the picture, this is one behemoth of an all-in-one audio unit. It’s not as attractive as those crystal-y speakers we saw earlier from Harman-Kardon, but it does pack some serious all-in-one audio goodness. This isn’t some kind of lame trick from Harman-Kardon either, attempting to dupe you into buying something [...]

Star Wars: The Clone Wars ISpeaker

Undoubtedly Star Wars: The Clone Wars was the lamest movie in the franchisee yet, however this has not stopped Lucasarts from releasing movie merchandise. The ISpeaker uses a flat panel speaker and is compatible with iPod, iPhone and other MP3 players. It features Captain Rex from the Clone Wars and is powered by 4 x [...]

Sony upgrades Walkmen with auto playlists

Sony today followed through on recent leaks with a significant overhaul of its Walkman music players.

iLuv intros the iMM173 dual-dock iPod / iPhone alarm clock

Putting two iPhone / iPod docks in an alarm clock is a simple and clever idea that’s so far only shown up in the JVC-PN7 (which we have and love), but it looks like iLuv’s getting in the game as well with the new iMM137. Apart from the two shielded iPhone 3G-compatible docks up top, [...]
