Lexon, long time manufacturer of high design museum gift shop merchandise, is selling an iPod inspired radio. With its “scroll” wheel and button controls labeled in a font nearly identical to the iPod’s navigation buttons, this is a sure fire gift for the iPodder in your life.
Oh, and recently while at the local drug store, I spied a product which has somehow remained under Apple’s legal radar, the IPOD Contact Lens Case, in several designer colors. Neat packaging too.

Just so you know, mcdj, that radio was actually designed before the iPod came out (in early 2001). It does look kind of like the iPod I guess. It still looks really cool though - I’d probably buy it, but I’ve already got one.

When I say I’ve already got one (above), I don’t mean one of them. I mean a radio in general! Just posting this so I don’t sound stupid!
