Karl Lagerfeld likes custom cases. Remember this Fendi iPod briefcase, from way back in '04? It was meant to hold a dozen of the music players.

Lagerfeld also designed a single iPod holder, again by/for Fendi, for those of us who don't own more than 40 iPods.

Then there was his six-bottle champagne case, which had nothing to do with iPods and everything to do with Dom Perignon.

But back to the 'Pods. Lagerfeld's now upgraded to a bespoke Louis Vuitton trunk system, each one loaded up with speakers and a subwoofer by Monster and containing a briefcase loaded up with 20 you-know-whats.

We find this last one kind of comical, because the whole point of the iPod is portability. Somewhere along the line, "1,000 songs in your pocket" turned into "Lower back pain for Lagerfeld's lackeys."
