This is for anyone who thinks that celebrities dressing up tiny dogs is oh so cute. Well, that trend may be on it’s way out, so why not dress up your iPod? Maybe it needs a wardrobe makeover. If you’re bored with your current gadget skins the iPod Hoodie is definitely different. If you don’t have a tiny animal to dress, this would be the way to go.

It looks just like the hoodies you wear, but more ridiculous as it is on a small iPod. They’re even made out of real sweat shirt material. The iHoodies come in shapes compatible with the iPod Touch, Nano, Video Nano and iPod mini, and cost between £9.99 and £10.99 or about $20. Think of all the fun you can have dressing your various devices and having lovely little tea parties. Why, the hoodie is a perfect way to recreate Eminem in the “8 Mile” movie.

iFrogz announced the release of Thumpz, today at CES 2008 in Las Vegas. Thumpz is currently designed for the 3rd generation iPod nano and will also be available for the iPod Classic and incorporated into the Tadpole case. It’s a 100% silicone case with speaker that gives you a compact, more stylish way to listen to music.

The new Thumpz uses a passive speaker technology that offers great sound without the added bulk of batteries. Just slide the iPod into speaker case and connect through the headphone jack. It only extends the length of the iPod about an inch. It claims to give you full protection and you can still share your music and videos without the need to remove the case or plug it into other speakers.
