Penguin audio Shelf allows an easy access to online literature

By Naresh KumarChauhan /Nov 22 2010

With the rise in use of audio books in the recent past, the need for some enhanced sound devices has been felt more than ever before, allowing the user easy access to online literature. Addressing the issue, British designer Archie Nicoll has developed an audio shelf named the “Penguin” that other than storing rich and wide literature also produces quality sound to enhance your experience. Integrating the battery and amplifier within the shell, the audio shelf becomes a docking station for your iPod and other MP3 players. The elevated position of the main shell helps in enhancing the acoustics of the device. Moreover, you can connect your laptop and other audio inputs using an AC adapter to explore the storehouse of literature available on the internet.
