No kidding, this really is an iPod. From DrGrymmLaboratories.com, this remade iPod is actually functional. In writing about his Eye-Pod, Dr. Grymm said:

The piece was handcrafted using various metal pieces from old typewriters, formed brass and steel, leather and quartz crystals. The magnifier is an acrylic half sphere and it is tinted a sepia tone to give a slightly blurred and tea-dyed look to the screen. The most difficult part of the contraption was the new controller which is built from a glass eye, steel and a precision cut brass mechanism I developed to enable the controls to act as they should; including the menu and volume features. After several tries I finally got the tension just right so it moves and rolls fluidly when selecting music. (Incidentally, the current plague-list includes over 8 hours of classical music).
