I don’t own an iPod. Well, OK, technically I do, but it’s a Shuffle, not a fancy-schmancy gadget with a touchscreen or anything. And, I’m kind of afraid to use it because it’s been sitting at the bottom of my gym bag for about a year, eek. But all personal asides aside, if I did happen to own an iPod, I would definitely rock out all summer long with this Boombox iPod dock by Lasonic.

It conjures visions of first grade, when I would strut around the playground with a Fisher Price tape deck on my shoulder, blasting Kylie Minogue’s “Locomotion,” and trying to start a dance train. Perhaps I watched too many episodes of KIDS Incorporated or the Mickey Mouse Club. Either way, Lasonic’s Boombox kicks my dinky Fisher Price ass. I can only imagine where I would be today if I would’ve had one back then . . .
