As the proud owner of my very first iPod, I'm in the market for a few accessories that won't break my bank or the environment. The first item I found that matched both criteria is an organic wood iPod docking station called the Vers Audio 2X iPod Sound System.

Available from Organic Bug, this great little speaker set comes in four types of sustainably grown wood, including bamboo, and ranges from $180-$200 (with free shipping). Here's how Organic Bug describes it:

Using the most environmentally friendly bonding agents available, each Vers 2X is 100% RoHS-compliant (Restriction of Hazardous Substances). It has an energy saving power supply; even the plastic components are PVC & BFR free. Units are designed for complete disassembly so all parts can be recycled. Packaging is from 100% post-consumer recycled content. Small footprint, big sound! 

My next challenge is to find a sustainably designed carrying case. But I'm on the hunt!
