Creative TravelSound 200 as an alternative [Posted on 2006-08-30]
You might want to check out the Creative TravelSound 200 also here on Amazon. It gets great reviews too and is less expensive.

Amazing sound and portability [Posted on 2006-10-01]
These are clearly amazing speakers for the price and size. Like anything, there are always some drawbacks. They sound best when positioned close to your ears and are playing at a comfortable volume level. Directly behind your head is the ideal position.

To get optimum sound from a particular song, you'll need to adjsut three things: 1. Sound Level - pick a volume that's no too loud or you'll hear distortion. 2. Expand Mode - Nice feature and for most songs makes the stereo effect wider. But above medium sound levels it will distort. Certain studio engineered music (Enya) will distort immediately. 3. Bass Boost - It's not on this unit but if your music player has it, put it on. Most songs sound better with it but it needs to be off for others.

Great product.

A great portable speaker. [Posted on 2006-11-16]
Pros:
-I love this portable speaker. I do not like a pair of separate speakers.
-Great sound. Remember it is not meant to be a bookshelf speaker, yet loud enough for its size.
-Perfect for bedroom.
-It automatically turns off when you flip it down.
-It is great to use with my laptop or ipod. Skype.
-Battery consumption is not too bad.

Cons:
-The battery cover is hard to open.
-It does not have USB connection.
-AA batteries would be prefereable instead of AAA. AA is cheaper and easier to find in the house.
-Diaphragm do not have any grills to protect it. If you have kids who love to poke around on things. It can easily be dented.
-A little expensive.
