If you're an iPod accessory collector who's beyond chargers and speakers, but not quite ready for an iPod BMW, you might consider Wurlitzer'sBubbler CD jukebox, now available with an iPod dock.

The "One More Time" jukebox sells for $9,500 and is a descendent of the model made popular in the post-war 1940s. It holds 100 CDs and features Bose speakers, floating bubbles and lights that change color.

Douglas Skor, who manages Wurlitzer's U.S. branch, said although the One More Time jukebox is a commercial machine, it's sold primarily to homes and "makes for more of a fine piece of furniture that happens to play music."

"With the laws that regulate public performance, this feature would not be acceptable in a commercial application. However, for the private homeowner it becomes the ultimate iPod accessory," he said.

Skor added that his company is the first in the industry to add the iPod playing feature. Those interested in buying the jukebox should contact Wurlitzer's office to locate the nearest dealer.
