5.0 out of 5 stars Too Cool!, October 18, 2004

By	ScubaTnk "ScubaTnk" (NY) - See all my reviews

Ok- so everyone has an iPod now... that's cool. But do they have awesome sound that you can share their tunes with everyone? iStation has great sound, and is easy to travel with. I take it on business trips (it slips nicely into my carry-on bag)and listen to tunes in the hotel room. It takes up so little space, I take it back/forth from office to home, where I can synch and charge all at once. On the weekends, iStation works great on the boat. My kids loved it so much, my daughter had to have one for her dorm room, and my teenager at home uses it in her bedroom.

I never run out of battery time now... every time I put the iPod in the cradle, it gets a charge.

My neighbor has speakers from a competitive brand- he gets no charge and the sound output is not a great as my iStation. I'm thrilled with this buy! And best of all, it costs less than the competition!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Impressed, November 15, 2004

By	circuitmonkey (California) - See all my reviews

This is a terrific buy. Sound quality is good, it is stylishly designed and easy to operate. I am not adept at anything technical, but this was three steps to playing your music. They include multiple AC adapters. The one improvement is if they could make a smaller AC adapter for travel.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good sound, OK value, April 5, 2005

By	RC - See all my reviews

In my search for a nice travel speaker system for my laptop and preferably Ipod compatible (as far as charging and syncing), I took the I-station for a test-drive and compared it to a friend's Altec Lansing InMotion system.

I thought the sound quality from the I-station system was good - especially for the size. The InMotion system did sound quite a bit better - much more presence and nearly matching the bass response even without the "subwoofer".

I was dissappointed in the fold-up design with the separate plastic cover.

Overall, given the choice between this at $80 and the InMotion at its original price of $150, I would choose this. But now I see the InMotion for $110. I think that it is definately worth the $30 for the InMotion's better sound and slick fully protected fold-up design. However, I'm still looking at other systems.
