iPond – The Weird iPod Speaker
Posted by Anand in Weird Gadgets
This gadget should have been in the list of top 15 weird gadgets. Unfortunately, we came to know about this only yesterday.
iPond, as cleverly named is a portable speaker for the iPods. It is a portable aquarium-speaker for the iPod like mp3 players.
There is input jack and you can connect your mp3 player / iPods to it using the accompanying cable.
The iPonds are sold at Pet Chains and Pet Goods store in Australia. It costs $70 per piece.
The weirdest thing is that, this portable aquarium that can only hold 650ml of water is sold with a Siamese fighting fish that environmental scientists say require at least 10 liters of water for its proper health.
According to environmentalists, iPond’s speakers are placed under the aquarium and this may transfer sound waves to water, which in result is harmful for the fish.
All of these have sparked anger from environmentalists and now they want to stop selling iPonds in Australia.
However, this news is working counterproductive and now iPond is the most sought holiday gadget in Australia.

The “ipond” is too much. You don’t need a fish to listen to music. Is making money more important than killing fish? If so, that is truly sad.
This is going too far. How about we stick one of the ipod associates in an ipod speaker? That way as we listen to music we can entertain ourselves by watching the human slowly die. Entertainment has always been put over lives before, right?
Hey if the human race would like to be locked up in a 1m2 room for the rest of our live the go ahead and buy this shit.
