iPod Fashion + Function

Wow... Brighton Net is selling these cool bags in Japan that actually have functioning speakers inside, and a place to hook up your iPod. According to AkibaLive:

"The two channel/two speaker & amp are built-in to a leather handbag from Kawa Sozai, a famous high quality leather producer in Japan. In the center of the bag is a pocket for the insertion of an iPod. The exterior of the iPod pocket is covered with clear vinyl, allowing one to control the wheel of the iPod without removing it."
