Pressure Drop presents the “DecoDock, the first stylish dock designed to complement and enhance the iPod shuffle. DecoDock provides an elegant solution for users who want a simple, artistic way to connect their iPod shuffle to their computer. For those users who think they’d rather hack through the tangle of cables sprouting from the back of their computer like Indiana Jones searching for The Lost USB Port, or are contemplating a USB extension cable for that classic shuffle-on-a-rope look, we hope you’ll reconsider. For those daredevils gambling their shuffle will avoid being snapped off the side of their laptop like a dead twig, head for Vegas and buy a DecoDock for your shuffle’s sake. And for those style-hungry souls, searching a wasteland of computer peripherals devoid of pleasing designs, welcome to Pressure Drop, and the Art-Techo movement.”
DecoDock features:
• Connect your shuffle to your computer in a convenient, elegant way.
• Decorative illumination from the columns via white LEDs
• Integrated cap holder securely keeps your shuffle’s cap from getting lost
• Available in a variety of colors (TBA)
• Shipping in April
DecoDock retails for US$28.99 and Pressure Drop is taking preorders now for $24.99.

On their website, that “Cruiser” for the AirPort looks like something straight out of War of the Worlds. Pretty neat to see function following form to a certain extent, even if the practicality is somewhat limited.
Wow, art deco for the ‘Pod! I must say that’s a fun looking solution to the ‘extra port’ problem

Now I suppose I have to buy a shuffle just so I can have one of those. way cool!

but…
will it work for those idiots who bought a Dull DJ….or that “Creative” thing a ma bob ?
uhhhh…. on second thought…. who cares ?
Snazzy!
The upper half looks really cool. Too bad the base looks like something from Star Trek, especially that lame logo. Dorky and out of character with the retro-styled top of the unit.
