Tivoli Audio iPAL (white/silver)

Pros: Rich beautiful sound. Not a boom box. A clear articulator of sound. Play this continuously for 12 hours ton single charge. Take it room to room all day without ever hassling with a plug. Great looks. Small footprint.

Cons: Price. I bought mine 3 or 4 years ago and the price has gone up way too much. Should be around 149 in my opinion. Having said that, I would buy it at the current price if I lost mine because there simply is nothing comparable.

Summary: Non obnoxious totally portable music player and radio. Great quality and styling. Robust. Takes abuse. Sounds fantastic. If you want super high volume dont get this. If you want to fill a room with pleasant volume you will love this. I like it that it does not have a dock but uses a miniplug for the ipod because in my opinion docks often end up damaging ipods/iphones.
