(Despite some of the negative reviews of this item, it continues to perform well with my regular-sized iPod. In fact, it has more volume, depth, and presence than three other portable speakers--each costing 50 to 75% more--to which I've compared it. The only downside is that the item is no longer sold postage-free from Amazon, diminishing its "bargain" appeal somewhat.)

These modest-sized and priced speakers perform as advertised: the sound is more than adequate; they're small enough that I can take The Stephen Colbert Report with me on walks; when not in use, they fold up into a mini Porta-John. My only misgiving is whether I should have spent 2-3X more for a unit with a dock connector. But for under twenty bucks you simply won't find a better sounding, more compact unit.

Not at all durable due to very, very cheap construction. I had to massage my batteries to get the speakers to play. A total waste of time to purchase, try to use and return. Couldn't even give these away.

I didn't expect much from these for their price, but just wanted some small speakers to listen to my ipod in the park without having to use earphones. The volume, clarity and sound on these really surprised me. Don't expect Bose, but don't expect junk either. They fold into a nice small square that protects the speakers from other stuff in your bag. My 30g Ipod fit with some extra room in case I have it's protective skin on it. I experimented with my old walkman cd player plugged into it and the sound was still great. Overall I give these little goodies a thumbs up.
