JBL's On Tour Plus and Radial speakers

Not that we're experiencing any certain drought out there for PSP and iPod accessories, but JBL's announcing their latest speaker system devices for the bespoke gadget icons. The PSP, which typically seems to get the emphasis on portable speaker systems, snags an On Stage variant of its own: the 6 watt On Tour Plus goes for $129.95 and is available now; the 60 watt Radial, successor to the On Time, will have and remote for use with that iPod, and should set you back $299.95 in June when suddenly all your friends will undoubtedly begin commenting on how your speaker-dock looks like a lopsided Michelin, or, depending on the crowd with which you hang, an As Four purse.

i seriously dig these crazy circular speaker docks, it's as though the plans for their design were sent to us embedded in decoded messages from outerspace by distant, advanced aliens intent on ensuring we enjoy the highest-fidelity audio possible from our music-pods.

Cheers to JBL on the design of the Radial. Looks great. The other one's cool too but not new and not AS cool.

I think it doesn't look like Michelin, it looks more like a Converse speaker!!!!! LOL!!

I wonder if Kirk and Spock can jump through the Radial and be transported to the past and meet Joan Collins?

The Radial is a shrine fit for an iPod. Now followers have an sacred temple in which to house and worship their beloved DRM data player.
