Duracell/Battery Biz combines battery power, FM transmitter and iPod

Here's a completely offbeat product introduced at this year's Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show: it's a Duracell battery that boosts your iPod's playback power and provides an FM transmitter for your music. According to the video, it's manufactured by Battery Biz which has licensed the Duracell name. To be fair, it would never occur to me to combine an FM transmitter (great for the car, where there's easy access to 12-Volt power for iPod chargers) and a battery booster (great for travel, when you don't need to connect to a car radio), but there you have it. It's CES time; let the madness proclaim itself in all its glory.
