The iPod Shaped Eggcup – eiPOTT
Interesting Stuff
German design studio “qed” turned the iPod’s iconic form into a series of colorful egg cups.
This little plastic iPod-shaped eggcup is called eiPOTT. The Ei part means egg in German. The Pott part means pott. It’s actually a rather appropriate shape for an eggcup: The clickwheel holds the egg and the recessed “screen” takes either a generous dose of salt or the cracked remains of the bashed-in shell.
What’s more, while this looks like yet another concept design, it’s actually a real, shipping product, and as even Apple can’t really claim that anyone would mistake this for a real media-player, it’s likely to remain on sale. At €7.50 ($10.60), it even carries a genuinely high, Apple-style price-tag.
A couple more shots after the jump.
