Bose SoundLink wireless mobile speaker
Price: $350
CNET recently declared the Bose SoundLink "the iPhone of portable Bluetooth speakers."

Using Bluetooth wireless technology, the portable SoundLink allows you to play music, movies or other offerings on your smartphone, iTouch, iPad or other tablet in high fidelity. The tiny speaker measures just 5 inches tall, 9.5 inches wide and 2 inches thick, but offers a mighty big sound.

"The Bose SoundLink works well and sounds good," Carnoy says. "You can set it up in your house or outdoors and simply move it around."

The speaker can pick up audio from smartphones or tablets as much as 30 feet away, and comes with a built-in lithium-ion battery that provides up to four hours of listening time between charges.
