Lego-style iPod plug-in speaker

Lego once more provides the inspiration for a piece of modern-day design - this time the Lego-style iPod speaker.

Yes, that's right, this is a speaker for your iPod - just in case you fancy giving your earphones a day off. No batteries are required (power is via the player), just plug in your speaker and enjoy your (i)tunes. Stereo speakers are at either end of the unit, with a volume control in the centre.

It works with most nanos and the speakers are available in a range of colours, retailing for a very reasonable $25 (around £13).
