"Accessories for the iPod come in all shapes and sizes. Today I will be looking at the uniquely shaped mStation 2.1 Stereo Orb. This speaker is designed to work with any iPod ranging from the first generation to current iPod models. Besides acting as a set of speakers, the Stereo Orb can function as a charging/syncing dock and includes a stereo mini jack which allows the ability to hook up other devices such as other MP3 and CD players. Plus with the 10 key remote, you can control basic functions on your mStation."
