Oregon Scientific’s iBall is a $300 wireless speaker that streams music from a dock up to 100 feet away.
The dock also charges the iPod and can sync it with your computer. On the other end, the speaker acts as a remote control for the iPod.
It’s a clever device with a clever name. Let’s hope it sounds good.
Tunewear’s BoomTune also caught my eye. It’s a $40 tripod speaker system that plugs directly into an iPod headphone jack. It’s also a clever design, and Tunewear says it “booms,” though I doubt that.
