Lord knows there are a pile of iPod accessories out there, and to be honest, most of them aren’t worth the pixels to write about, let alone purchase. Thankfully, the new HomeDock Deluxe from DLO is not among them. Attach this little gem to your home theater (S-video and RCA cables provided) and you will be greeted by a stylish on-screen menu offering a variety of options: watch iTunes videos, listen to music with album art, custom vizualizers, on-the-fly playlists, colored themes and more. The charging dock (yes, it charges your iPod too) is a classy sliver and black that will fit nicely into most home theater decors. The dock also holds the 18-button remote when not in use.
Obviously, iPods are meant to be mobile, but this new offering fills the gap when they aren’t. Shipping in March, cost $150. Click here for pics.
