Speakal iPig

This little piggy may not produce bacon, but it is kind of tasty. At first glance, the iPig seems like another crappy iPod gimmick. While we’re not going to get in a fistfight over it, Gizmodo did squeal in delight over this little guy’s sound quality earlier this year. Maybe that’s because the company packed five speakers and a sub into Porky. Available in white, yellow or pink, the eyes hide the speakers and the mouth lights up during use. “Tickle” his ears and you’ve got volume control. It sounds slightly creepy, but it’s sure to be a favorite for kids and Pink Floyd fans alike.

Price: $140
