Dorm 101: iPodding

Venturing for a walk on the streets, you are guaranteed to see one! Sitting uncomfortably in your airplane seat, no one is seen without one! When discussing audio, it seems almost inevitable that they will not only come up, but will eventually steal the focus of the conversation. What are these devices that have taken over our very existence? Obviously, the iPod! So why limit their already overwhelming presence to the outside world when you can conform and equip your dorm room with all your iPod’s needs? With over 1000 iPod accessories, it is clear who wears the pants in this relationship. So continue in your submissive ways and get some iPod dorm accessories that no college student can do without!

• The iHome Clock Radio Home System combines three great features into one: an alarm clock, AM/FM Radio, and a quality stereo system for your iPod. With a really low price and a space saving design, this is the perfect accessory for the dorm room!
• Following along the same lines as the iHome, the Tivoli Audio Fashion Pal lacks the alarm clock, but makes up for it in style and portability. It is weather resistant so it can accompany you to the beach and runs off a rechargeable NiMH battery, giving you up to 16 hours of playback! Check out the entire selection of colors to see which fits your personal style best!
• The Bose SoundDock has already created a name for itself as being among the best iPod-compatible, music systems on the market! Simply dock your iPod or iPod mini and sit back as the room fills with vibrant, definitive, Bose quality sound! (Now in black!)
• For a cheaper option, check out Logitech’s MM22 Portable Speakers. If you think you have to compromise sound by purchasing small speakers, think again! These speakers deliver the excellent audio that you demand in a compact package that you can take on the road.

Now, here are two products that are sure to make you a little different from the iPod crowd:

• Whether or not you’re an aspiring DJ, this is the coolest gadget for any music lover: The ION iPod DJ Mixer. Basically, this is the future of the turntable! This DJ mixer has inputs for two iPods, giving you the ability to utilize thousands of tracks for your mixes. It even has inputs for two additional turntables or MP3/CD players. So now you can bring the club scene to your very own dorm room!
• Though this final iPod toy seems like the inventor combined apples with oranges, we still like the outcome! I mean, how can you go wrong by combining a massage cushion with built in speakers for your MP3 player? Well Homedics understood that you couldn’t and created this monster-crossbreed, Motor Massage Cushion with Built-in Speakers & Input Jack. Plug in and play your iPod or any other audio source that has an earphone jack while relaxing to 5 invigorating massage motors plus soothing heat!

Music plays a central role in the everyday lives of all people…sometimes even without their conscious knowledge. Music has the power to change moods, help induce relaxation, promote dancing, or even overcome the emotions. So why confine something so important to a pair of white headphones…unleash your tunes!
