Element's emo iPod speaker, with wings
The Element Skateboards edition of the Vestalife Ladybug speaker system is the perfect nightstand accessory for your surly, emo teenager.
(Credit: VestaLife)A new kid on the block named Vestalife is set to roll out a new iPod speaker dock at CES named Ladybug. Realizing that no self-respecting man will ever buy something called a Ladybug, Vestalife is partnering with Element Skateboards to create a limited edition version, clad in black, chrome, and skulls.
The Vestalife Ladybug includes two 1.5-inch tweeters that fold over the face of your iPod, making a tiny sonic cocoon for your precious MP3 player. The back of the Ladybug houses a single 3-inch sub, along with an auxiliary input, USB port, AV output, and an external power jack. All universal-dock iPod models are supported. No pricing has been released.
