XtremeMac 展出多款 Dock 喇叭產品動手玩（影片）
XtremeMac 展出多款 Dock 喇叭產品動手玩（影片）:
本週舉辦的 IFA 會場中有個以大橙色為主的展覽空間，展出由 XtremeMac 所設計以蘋果產品為主的許多周邊商品，其中幾款滿有趣的 Dock 音樂底座引起了我們的注意。首先想要介紹給大家的是名為 Soma Stand 的 iPhone / iPad / iPod 行動喇叭底座，它使用時的造型有如金字塔一般矗立在可摺疊隱藏的底座後方。摺疊後也還算便利可攜（至少比立起時省空間多了），朝外的喇叭播放方向，讓就算安裝的是 iPad 也不至於因為可能會造成的遮蔽影響播放效果。Soma Stand 預計於十月以約 €100（NT$4,100、HK$1,100） 的價格在歐洲上市。
另一款以旅遊為取向的 Soma Travel，可在無需電源線或電池安裝下，直接透過蘋果裝置供電播放音樂。官方宣稱在充滿電的 iPhone 4 上可提供約 34 小時的播放時間。不過這種無需額外電力的喇叭商品，可想而知播放表現應該是不會太強悍，而經過實際使用後感覺應付單人使用的話都還算可接受。售價約 €50（NT$2,050、HK$550）。
若是有羨慕 Dell 螢幕擁有原廠揚聲器（參考引用來源）可供選配的 iMac 使用者，應該會對這款電腦用的 Tango Bar 揚聲器有很大的興趣。設計與新一代的 iMac 產品風格十分搭配，以 USB 作為電力與聲音輸入來源，且具有十瓦的輸出能力。其售價與跳轉後影片中的 Soma Stand 同樣為約 €100（NT$4,100、HK$1,100）。對這些有趣產品的其他圖片有興趣的朋友也可於圖集中觀看。（雖然 Tango Bar 還滿酷的，但真的會有人想要在一體成型的 iMac 上掛些額外的東西嗎？）
