    I stand corrected. About a week ago, I said that the solar-powered, iPod charging golf bag from Soldius was the most over-the-top iPod "accessory" yet. Boy, was I wrong.Check out the HMS Daring, the most powerful warship ever constructed. The first of the Royal Navy's Type 45 Destroyers features a missile system that can detect and destroy a baseball-sized (approximately) object traveling at three times the speed of sound, 14 decks, the latest in high tech weaponry...and iPod charging stations in each crew cabin. All that for only £605 million.I can almost hear the cries now, "Damn the torpedoes, men, it's new music Tuesday!"[Via Macbytes]
