Airport Express + iPod = iPod Boombox?

Perhaps, it seems - and it kinda makes sense. Such an item would save me $150 (the cost of an AirPort Express) for my game room. Then again, without a CD player, perhaps it wouldn't. An ideal iPod Boombox would have:
- the option for external speakers.
- Airport Express built in for streaming from a computer.
- a built-in dock connector and a USB 2 port for an iPod (screen or Shuffle)..
- a CD player with configurable (bitrate, AAC/MP3, etc.) import capabilities to add music directly to an iPod or perhaps even stream to a host computer, as well as standard CD playback.
Yep, that about does it for me.
