The Black Diamond iPod Dock

There must be thousands of iPod docks on the market now, and with so many options it is becoming increasingly rare to find one that really stands out. However the YanTouch Black Diamond does just this, transforming tunes into ambient light. I love the unconventional design proving that not all docks need to be some variation of a square or rectangle.

The dock which starts off as Epcot-esque black sphere charges by USB, and can be paired with a number of apps which allow it to glow in a number of different colors that signify changes in weather or to ID different callers.

The Black Diamond, will be available soon for roughly $80 (no UK price yet).

iriver U100 PMP gets official reveal, P100 and D2000 leave something to the imagination

The teases over at iriver are ready to show you what they've got: the neon-colored U100. We reported on the PMP, along with the P100 and the D2000 last month, but it looks like iriver is going to leave us guessing on the last two. The U100 sports a 3.1-inch (320 x 480) touchscreen, up to 16GB of internal memory, WiFi, microSDHC, and an FM tuner for those who still listens to the radio. It plays 720p video and touts 50 hours of battery life for audio playback and 11 hours for video. iriver isn't ready to give us all the details quite yet -- an official release date and pricing are still under wraps -- but they have provided another video to keep us interested.
