JBL Launches New iPod Dock, the On Stage IV
A portable dock with a cool design.

We’ve already seen the original JBL On Stage Micro , and it was pretty decent. But now here’s something that looks way cooler than its predecessor. The JBL On Stage IV features Four JBL Odyssey full-range transducers that should hopefully make this dock sound as good as it looks. It also has a pretty useful remote like the original On Stage Micro, which lets you navigate your music library.
