In the days of touchscreens and wireless data, our heroes of yesteryear find solace in the companionship of one another.
From the creator, Byron Casebier:
Here is my weak (and slightly unfinished) Atari iPod Dock. I thought sharing may create interest for someone that can do this better. As far as specs, I gutted a broken, iPod clock radio and put it all inside the Atari. Everything works except for the clock (it was the broken part). There is even a remote control so I can sit back on my vinyl couch, drink some Tang and control my tunes...And yes, I'm still rocking a 3rd gen iPod.
A little geek factoid about that generation of iPod: It's still Jason Chen's, Matt Buchanan's and my favorite iPod design. Those orange glowing buttons were the best.
Stick together, little iPod and Atari. Your ability to find true love in this crazy, fast-paced world is an inspiration.
