Speakal releases iPanda

Speakal on Tuesday released iPanda, its newest audio system with a built-in iPod docking station. Similar to iPig, iPanda is a small five speaker stereo with an onboard Hi-Fi amplifier to produce 360 degrees of sound, dynamic airflow optimizer, interior dynamic cooling exchange and sound stabilization, all compacted into a tiny panda design. Compatible with all iPod models, the docking station allows users to charge the iPod while listening to music in 2.1 stereo. Also equipped is a 3.5mm standard input jack that allows iPanda to work with any MP3 and MP4, producing 25+ watts of sound.

Complete with multiple cradles, adjustable subwoofer, and volume control by pressing down on either ear, iPanda's mouth lights up while the device is powered and blinks when receiving commands from the remote.

Available at the Speakal website, iPanda is priced at $140, similar to the iPig.
