iHome ZN9 – world's first Zune alarm clock radio
Not much in the way of Zune docks and clocks – probably because of a lack of worldwide penetration for Microsoft’s pocket player. But here’s one – the iHome ZN9…
Newman's COOL MAN MP3 player is the world's dorkiest yet
It’s a fairly ugly and nondescript MP3 player, so why are we showing it to you, you ask? Check out the back of the player – it has a safety pin clip, so you can pin it to your lapel amongst the numerous musical buttons you’re rocking, reaffirming your indie cred. Or is that dork cred?
I’m thinking the latter, particularly because Newman has named this player the COOL MAN, complete with capitalised letters. The rest of the…

Officially landing on Friday the 13th (of June), the 80GB version will be CA$249, the 4GB CA$139, and 8GB CA$189.
