You know, that's totally a recreation of Oikake up there holding that iPod, wouldn't you agree? In the spirit of Pac-man, Speakal has delivered the iBoo sound station, an iPod-friendly device that's cute enough for your kids and retro enough for you. For the low, low price of just $89.99, you too can join in the fun by grabbing one in red, blue or white. Specs wise, the device features an obligatory iPod dock, a 3.5 millimeter auxiliary input, touch volume control and music navigation, 15 watts of total power and a mini remote for controlling things from afar. Don't deny it, you're in love.

iPods have such great accessories, no matter what your taste. My niece would love this.

Buy a Macbook and sit in Starbucks. Girls will walk up to you and slobber over it. Trust me, despite the obvious stereotype, it works. I"m going on a second date with a Macbook girl this Friday. ;)

Makes me glad I have an HP. It may suck, but at least it doesn't have slobbers all over it.

Clearly you are not as versed in ghost anatomy as I am.

All I could think when I saw this was the following:

I LIKE OIKAKE
I LIKE OIKAKE
I LIKE OIKAKE
I'M A LUCKY FOR YOUR LOVE

Looks like the JBL Creature II subwoofer.

Get four blue ones, since they don't have orange, pink, or aqua. You don't want Blinky to be all alone.

And everybody knows there aren't white ghosts... oh wait... :)

If these doubled as lamps I might get two for my game room. They should also blink occasionally.

Explains why the pac-man ghosts are evil and always want to kill.

I don't like the price, 90$ now days can get you much better quality speakers for less. The look of it is beautiful but I really doubt the quality of the product as a whole. your not seeing the cord hanging out it's ass either.
