On first consideration, I thought these Butterfly iPod Docks [1] from PBTeen were too young for me, but then I remembered the Vestalife Ladybug Dock [2], whose soaring popularity is so high because of its girlie, young design.

These docks are cute and fun, but what's not cute, young, or fun, is the $100 price tag! Pottery Barn needs to learn to not start their novelty peripherals at such a high price point, because I was this close. . . thisclose! to getting this for somebody's birthday.

What do you think?
