The wizards at Akai (famous for their sampler lines world-wide) have come up with an ingenious way to integrate the iPod Touch/iPhone technologies with their sampler/controller line. Enter the iPk25.
It’s a 25-key controller which hosts the i-gadget. Load up the Akai app (avail via iTunes) and you’re making tunes. Want people to hear them? Dude, just plug in the audio outs to your PA system. When you get back from the streets, plug the controller into your computer via USB and it becomes a standard MIDI controller for your workstation.

I want one.
BRILLIANT.
