Sprout Creation’s Vers 1.5 Hand-crafted Sound System for iPod is available now in Cherry, Natural Walnut, Dark Walnut, Bamboo, Black Gloss, or White Gloss, and is priced from $200-$220, depending on the finish.

It says it charges “all dockable iPods sans 3G iPods”
I wonder if this is really true - including the new Touch 2G.
The charging mechanism changed on the new iPods/iPhones so I guess I’ll email to ask.
I want one if it does.

I wish they would recess the iPod though, so it doesn’t stick up like all the other dorky-looking iPod speakers… Otherwise, nice. (But, not nice enough for me to buy it, yet.)
