You wouldn’t believe how dreary it is in the greater New York region right now, so dreary, in fact, that I’ve lost the will to call out Onkyo for making yet another iPod speaker+dock. The CBX-Z1 is actually more of a plane jane tabletop radio+CD player than a “straight up” speaker+dock, just with an additional slot for your iPod. It is, however, part of Onkyo’s Aero Sound System, which, judging by the name, means that it should sound about as good as these little tabletop radios can be expected to.

It’ll makes its mark in October, just in time for the new iPod. (Right Apple? New iPods soon? How many people bought iPhones vs. how many will buy an iPod?)
