XtremeMac Luna

By (cnet.com)

The XtremeMac Luna is a decent-sounding tabletop iPod radio with plentiful alarm options and funky chrome knobs--if you're in the market for a bedside speaker unit, don't overlook this one.

The most striking thing about the Luna is its design. At 11.25 by 6.3 by 3.1 inches, it's not much different in size or shape from other alarm clocks. However, instead of a creating yet another product with a mash of buttons, knobs, and switches, XtremeMa...
