Yes we have yet another iPod dock on the scene but at least the Maxell MXSP-1100 tries to offer something different by, well, being wide for one…..

Kenwood has been keeping its head down for a while but they are back with the Kenwood Prodino audio system. Available in Japan from November, the Kenwood Prodino audio system has a compact minimal design and an external iPod dock.

The Fire Extinguisher Speakers are not just a simple imitation; these were actually in full time use in their previous life to turn the heat down. Now, in their present incarnation as speakers, they can turn the heat up if you’re a party lover.

The R227 is pretty tricked out for a little old radio, it even has an ethernet jack. Added to that are stereo speakers, Wifi, DAP auxiliary input, audio output and a sleek, glossy black wood finish make the Sanyo R227 WiFi-enabled Radio a rather neat little package

The Philips Luxe capacity is pitiful (2GB), the battery life is minimal (10 Hours) and the LCD screen is a joke (it only has space for one line of text). Believe me folks, this ain’t no iPod Nano.

The Aerosystem Speaker is a pretty expensive pedestal but for the money, it can use its integrated amp to beef up the sound coming from your iPod so it regains some of the lustre lost due to Mp3 encoding. Stylish and functional, Apple fans must be in love.

The iDive includes an integrated microprocessor so you can still use the iPod touch screen and click-wheel with ease, over-ear headphones / speakers which are attachable to masks and other diving gear and the whole unit is encased in polycarbonate, ensuring water tight security.

The Orango V880 portable media player comes with a 2.4″ screen that looks pretty flawless, its USB port is 2.0 USB compatible and the V880 has expandable memory via a microSD card slot. As with many PMP’s these days, it pays homage to the iPod by having a click wheel (even it does try to differentiate itself by glowing blue).

The Shiro SQ-S MP3 player has a handily placed solar-powered battery on the back of the device, allowing the player to be constantly charging, even as you use it. Pretty clever idea.

The Nikon Wifi UP300x Headphones have a mini screen attached which allows the user to watch films in various multi-media formats and also browse the web. Now, I am not sure how Nikon have measured their proportions but the Nikon Wifi UP300 Headphone’s itty-bitty screen looks too tiny to a get a decent view but I guess from that distance to your eye, the perspective is different.
