An iPod accessory for younger users has been created by Sharper Image Design, in the form of a teddy bear.
Friendly iPulse Bear has a pouch for the music player and an in-built speaker, with a hidden cable connecting to the headphone jack of any iPod or other audio device.
The iPod is activated by squeezing the bear's paw, which also kick-starts the iPulse Led lightshow in green, blue and red.
His eyes also light up in blue and green, pulsing with the music's rhythm, frequency and volume.
Retailing at $39.95 (£21), the Friendly iPulse Bear runs on 4 C batteries or by AC adapter and can be ordered in white or brown.
Also available are the iPulse ZipConnect Speakers which are compatible with any MP3 player, iPod, portable CD or satellite radio and display a similar lightshow in time with the music.
