I love the idea of the iPom for my girlfriend on Valentine’s day. We just bought our first house and are in the stages of decorating and she has even mentioned she wants some type of radio or sound system in the kitchen. She is also on the best buy geek squad so she loves stuff like this. It will look cute in the kitchen and she’ll get her sound system. Whoever designed it, two thumbs up.
