Any audiophile worth their weight in 180 gram vinyl will gladly tell you that nothing sounds quite as good as a record. Unfortunately, the format has a few major drawbacks, like a lack of portability and the fact that it really sucks at making phone calls. The iPhone, on the other hand, is light years ahead of those fronts -- well, one of out two ain't bad. This new concept from designer Olivier Meynard offers the best of both worlds, embedding a horizontal iPhone dock next to a wheel of steel, so you can play back your favorite LP through the built-in speakers and encode those tracks as MP3s, which are uploaded to your handset as it charges. Finally, a way to turn your long out of print prog rock albums into ringtones, as they were meant to be heard.

This seems to be an awfully expensive solution for something quite unnecessary. Nice post though
how long before we get a urinal with an iPhone dock?
maybe it will track you're movements to!
cool!
My Iphone cooks me dinner
This seems kind of unnecessary :P
Definitely expensive aye!
i still think i phones are over rated
Very interesting
i think it's just sort of a party-piece.
Nice and all but it looks like it takes up WAY too much room...
