Play your iPod tunes through the Music Mug

Yet another iPod sound system, but the Music Mug is a little different – not least, because it really is a mug.

Well, I say it’s a mug, but it’s a mug you can’t drink out of. You see – liquids and electronics don’t sit well together. But to make up for it, Masato Tokuno’s white ceramic mug does a good job of playing your tunes through the built-in speaker.

Just insert the mini plug into an iPod or MP3 player’s earphone jack for your music. No power leads either – power is taken from your iPod – which can be a good or bad thing.

If you want one, you can pick up a Music Mug from the MoMA store for $42 (around £21).
