If you miss the heady 80's days of irresponsible tycoons, big hair and boomboxes, then the iM7 promises a return of sorts. Well, except for the tycoons and the big hair -- you'll have to provide those yourself.

I tried the iM7 and the bose system in an apple store, the sound difference was marginal. However where the iM7 came out on top was it's ability to take 8 "D" sized batteries. The iM7 lasts approx 6 to 8 hours on decent batteries, however make sure your ipod is charged as it doesn't charge the ipod when using batteries.
did not know anything about this until at airport duty free shop and gave it a quick workout at full volume, it sounded great so i made the purchase and that gave it a full on workout when i meet up my brother for his birthday. It went hard for about 10 straight hour and did not miis a beat.
10/10 performance and quaility
it's sound is great you can turn the b**** up heaps and it wont dissort at all verry loud pretty cool degsing it's my favourite of all the bose speakers by far the price is good compared to the other ones my raiting 4 and half stars
Logitech's relatively inexpensive Pure-Fi Express Plus is a compact — and portable — iPod/iPhone speaker system with a built-in alarm clock that's fine for casual listening at home or on the road.
The JBL On Stage IIIP is a solid portable- and desktop-speaker option for iPhone users who want a compact unit that will work with a wide variety of audio devices.
iPod owners who are looking for a basic speaker they can use around the house should consider the JBL On Stage 200iD, a good-sounding option with a futuristic look and a remote control.
We're not sure this is the 'audiophile's' speaker system the packaging claims it to be, but for the money these make an excellent transportable alternative to bulkier systems.
With all the different types and variations available, it's easy to get confused about memory cards. But as they now fit into everything from digital cameras to printers, phones and televisions, it's important to know your way around the memory card maze.
An iPod, or any MP3 player, is a great way of carrying around shedloads of music. But why should you only listen to your music collection on the bus or train? We show you how to hook your iPod up to your car.
iPod docks with video displays haven't made much of a splash in Australia. Makes sense given the lack of TV shows and movies in the Oz iTunes store, but with all iPod models except the Shuffle now supporting video, perhaps it's time.
