Speakers nestled in each orifice, iPig dock oinks out tunes

Posted by John Brownlee, August 14, 2008 8:48 AM | permalink

A range of brightly colored, abstractly cutified swine and sows to oink out your tunes, Speakal's iPig docks feature five speakers per unit for a maximum of 25 watts of output, including a 4-inch installed in the rectum, as well as a super Hi-Fi Amplifier, an interior dynamic airflow optimizer and an interior dynamic cooling exchange system coiled amongst the piggy's bowels. Volume is raised by twisting the iPig's ears, just like a real hog.

I'm not really tempted to spend $140 on an iPod dock normally, but the iPig has the extra allure of being the spitting image of the rubbery piggies Invader Zim recklessly flings back through time to cripple his human nemesis, Dib. Episode 07B, for the record.

Ok good, I'm not the only one who immediately thought of Invader Zim.

Spitting image? Methinks you need to review this episode again:

A. The pigs that Zim flings back in time have a separate head and body.
B. This pig looks more like the pig disguise for the ship retrieval system:

This is the sort of gadget that I would expect to see, when I woke up in the middle of the night, squatting on my chest, emitting a rugose light--and not even plugged in.
