Sony announces TRiK boombox


Among the many Sony launches at CES is the TRiK iPod Dock Speaker System. The system features 75W of total output and a standard Apple dock connector that can charge and play music from both iPhone and iPod devices, but personalization is its centerpiece: owners can customize the speaker system with one of four included graphic skins. A partnership with SkinIt will also allow users to purchase new pre-designed skins online or create their own.

In addition to the iPod dock, the TRiK also includes a aux-in jack allowing users to listen to music from other devices such as generic MP3 players or a computer. Sony plans to release the speaker dock sometime in April and will give it a retail price of $130.

    could the writer of this article provide more info (if it is available), like what batteries it takes ?
    Little bits of info like this is what readers are interested in, especially with a portable device.
