LP Dock. Whoa, an iPod dock that is actually a tad more useful than the average. Slot your ‘pod into the socket and you can instantly transfer your aging vinyl classics into digital. No need for a computer, amplifier or even cables. Cool stuff. The thing also comes with a line out and USB port, so you can move stuff from vinyl to your other digital recorders or why not just play the old Pink Floyd platters through your stereo and kick back in a nostalgia fest? You’re going to have to cough up a goodly $259.95 for the privilege though citizen, so be prepared.

 LP DOCK includes EZ Vinyl Converter 2 for PC (EZVC2) and EZ Audio Converter for Mac (EZAC); the best way to record and convert vinyl directly to iTunes. EZVC2 features Gracenote® MusicID technology, which analyzes your vinyl and automatically retrieves album, artist and song information for you! EZAC lets you easily enter track information. You can now digitally archive your collection in just a few mouse clicks.
