If you want to dress up your iPod, you might want to consider one of the hottest technology gifts out there this season. It is an itty-bitty desktop speaker that works with your iPod Classic, Nano and Mini. The speakers resemble Lego blocks and come in all sorts of bright colors, such as yellow, pink, green, white, blue and black, There is even a new speaker that is a bit large and resembles a stack of blocks in red, white and blue.
The super compact little stereo is said to have great sound for its size; the speaker was even featured on the Today show recently. At $20, one of these speakers might make a nice stocking stuffer for someone you love. I can see teens, especially, loving this device. It is very portable.
Now I remember some time ago that PC Magazine challenged readers to build a Lego computer, and someone actually did rise to the challenge. Legos have been used to build all sorts of objects and devices. It was just a matter of time before someone actually made a Lego device for the iPod.

And if you would rather go for top quality over the cute and convenient, you can check out CNET’s review of the top iPod speakers, updated on November 30th. Many of CNET’s pick are pretty substantial in size, with the iPod itself the smallest component when docked. Prices for the picks range from the $80s to almost $500. With the higher-end products, you’ll get unequalled sound and lots of flexibility. CNET’s very top pick is the Logitech Pure-Fi Elite, and this is for good reason. Not only does it offer amazing design and great sound, but the price is very competitive. To see all of the picks and reviews, click here.
