Satechi's Swift BT Speaker provides some impressive functionality in a very affordable package
The Satechi Swift BT Speaker is a surprisingly affordable little speaker (at just $29.99) that performs quite well. It's small and fairly stylish, and though its functions are about what you'd expect from a Bluetooth speaker, the Swift accomplishes them with an understated flair that I really ...

Gadzooks! Zooka's wireless speaker bar is a hit on Kickstarter

iFrogz was back at CES this year. Last year, most of its new products were iPhone and iPad cases, but this year the company is branching out. In addition to a USB gaming headset called the Caliber (it vibrates when loud sounds are played, "enhancing" the audio), iFrogz also has a product called ...

Horn Bike: the bike-mounted passive amplifier for iPhone 4
My favorite way to get around in London is cycling. And everyone knows that an iPhone with its GPS is a cyclist's best friend while navigating a city. But the drawback to cycling with an iPhone is obvious: if it's held in your hand you're going to A.) drop it eventually, or B.) fall off your ...
No Comment: The iPhone Megaphone
We've actually seen this megaphone idea implemented before.
