Wine Bottle-Shaped USB Speaker and FM Radio Only Makes Us Thirsty

December may be months away, but it's never too early to start thinking about what you could buy your favorite alcoholic uncle this holiday season. Instead of grabbing yet another handle of his special medicine, though, you might want to consider getting a bottle that'll keep on giving -- something like, say, a Wine Bottle USB Speaker and FM Radio.

As Coolest Gadgets explains, the bottle speaker's 3.5mm audio port and USB charging cable allow you to hook it up to your mp3 player or computer, while old-schoolers can use the device to listen to FM radio, as well. And, unlike most bottles of wine, the system's built-in, rechargeable lithium-ion battery can guarantee that the tunes won't run dry by night's end. The only potential drawback is the gadget's treble clef-laden design, which renders the speaker more energy drink than potent potable -- and makes us more likely to spend our $27 on a nice bottle of the real stuff.
