In a slight departure from the bog standard, JVC have released their latest iPod dock with the ability to swivel its 4.3 inch screen. Don’t go thinking you’ll be able to watch the videos stored on your iPod though, it’s reserved purely for the built in 1Seg digital TV tuner or WMV stored on a USB. The 15 x 15 watt NX-TC5 also features 512MB of onboard storage for photos, AM/FM tuner and a CD player that rips audio to MD or USB. See Japan and late August for release. It will be around $655.
