This extra-terrestrial looking contraption isn’t a member of the Decepticons, it’s the Shanling MC-30 iPod Dock. It’s more than meet’s the eye though because it’s not just an iPod docking station but also a Hi-Fi CD player, an AM/FM tuner, and a tube power amplifier which allows for 3 watts of power per channel. Now here’s the rub, it costs a whopping $1000 in American Currency. For a price like that, it should give instant sex appeal to a geek like you, but alas it doesn’t have extra-terrestrial powers. The price seems pretty steep, but can you put a price on cool? I think not.
