iLoad is an external device that copies songs and data from CDs to an iPod without the need of computer or internet connection. It’s a cool gadget but quite expensive. iLoad current sells at $299.00

Here’s what iLoad says for itself

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. So why make loading content on your iPod so complicated? iLoad devices connect directly to the source of your media: CDs, cable TV or satellite box and cell networks and allow you to easily take that content, along with all music, album and video data, directly to the iPod without using a computer or requiring an Internet connection. Why have content limited by what’s available on iTunes ? Yes, we know that you probably have a computer but now you have a choice on how you load your content. Now loading your music and video is as easy as enjoying it.

Pretty convenient gadget, but quite expensive to own.
