There's clearly no shortage of speaker sets for the iPod, but what about its call-happy brother the iPhone? In fact, since it uses the same proprietary 30-pin connector as its phone-less counterparts, the iPhone works with many of the sound systems that were designed with the iPod in mind. However, none of those speakers have integrated technology to prevent TDMA interference. That's where the new DLO Portable Speakers for iPod come in (and how's that for creative naming?).
The speakers, which cost a reasonable $49.99, offer a TDMA interference-free amplifier. The unit also comes with two orbiting speakers that can be placed in any configuration around the base, which can hold the iPhone--or iPod Touch, for that matter--in either portrait or landscape orientation. As such, there's no dock connector and the iPhone/iPod won't be charged in the base. You can, however, use the 3.5mm connection to hook up any audio device, and the speaker can be powered via the included AC adapter or by four AAA batteries, making it quite the versatile unit. Plus, each speaker snaps onto the base to create an enclosed, six-inch ball for easy transport. Neat!
Nope, that's not a Sony Rolly.(Credit: DLO)
