Haven’t had enough Angry Birds yet? I’m sure a backlash is on the horizon, but in the meantime a speaker series is on the way from gear4.
Despite the red bird having a reputation for being useless, the speaker is actually quite functional.

The green pig version, on the other hand, has a built-in helmet dock for the iPod/iPhone.
Look for the speakers to be released later this fall for $79.99-$99.99.
