The Spirit of Saint Louis dock marries the sturdy military craftsmanship of a WWII battlefield radio with a a CD player, stereo speakers, an alarm clock and an iPod dock connector, perfect for transmitting "America! Fuck Yeah!" deep into enemy territory to rattle the Jerries. The spit take: £299.99.

I had one of these a few years ago, except it was a CD/cassette/AM/FM without the Ipod dock. It was gorgeous. It fell from a table just above knee-high and broke into about 75 pieces. I miss it terribly, and I wish it had been a little sturdier.

Just FYI -- I visited the site, went to the products page for their radios, and and Kaspsersky warned:

I like it. A lot. There are a few aesthetic changes if I were to make one though. Heeeeeeeey.... that's an idea....

I work on consumer electronics professionally, and
I have repaired a few units of the previous version of this steampunkish device.

It does indeed look cool on the outside, kinda cheaper than you might hope on the inside.
