The first truly ugly thing Apple has turned out since the iPod was introduced...I think BOSE will still make a killing...don't worry about that...

I forgot to mention that the Hi-Fi has AirTunes integrated into it, so you can wirelessly stream music from your iTunes to the Hi-Fi. :D

LMAO, that picture is so hilarious. If you can't see why it's funny, then maybe you have been a consumer for too long. :-D

That having been said, a friend of mine has one of the older iPod docking stations, and the sound quality is really good - especially considering the size of the two itty-bitty speakers it has. If that is any indication of the quality of this comparative monstrosity, then I might be one to "ooh and aah" at it.

I'll bite...why?

Is it because it's the one that has the cover off the speakers?
