Aug 13th, 2012 at 8:00AM: The travel alarm clock was once required equipment on any trip. These small, usually battery operated, clocks were essential to getting us up and moving in the morning no matter where we slept the night before. Slowly over time, the travel alarm clock has mostly been replaced by our cellphones, which have included alarm options for years. But if Geneva Sound System has their way, the travel alarm ...

Jul 9th, 2012 at 8:00AM: A month or so back we posted some suggestions for tech and travel gifts for dads and grads with the Braven 600 portable speaker earning a spot on that list. This small, yet powerful, sound system is so impressive that we thought it was worth a full review as the compact speaker has a lot to offer travelers beyond just listening to their music on the go.
The first thing you'll notice about the ...

May 21st, 2012 at 8:00AM: One of the best things about carrying smartphones, tablets and laptops with us when we travel, is that we are also generally carrying our entire music libraries with us as well.

Fortunately a number of companies now make excellent portable ...

Do you like music when you travel? Listening to your tunes on headphones is fine when you are on a plane, but once you get to your hotel room (or the beach), it is nice to have a bit more volume. This is where the iMainGo 2 speaker case can help.
This compact battery powered speaker protects your player too - and thanks to its clear plastic back, you can still control your tunes. ...

Last week, we reviewed the iMainGo 2 portable speaker - and barely a week later, iMainGo has released a new speaker to their lineup that builds off the success of the previous one.
Like the iMainGo 2, the iMainGo: X provides full access to your device through a clear panel on the back - but adds an internal lithium-ion battery, a line-in jack and the ability to daisy-chain several speakers ...

With the weekend quickly approaching (how on earth did that happen so quickly this week?), the time has come to relax, turn on some of your favorite tunes, and enjoy a cold beverage. Unless you live in the midwest, where the temperatures are already dropping to the point where hot chocolate is justified.
To enjoy your music on the go, the iMainGo 2 could very easily become your best friend. ...

Nov 15th, 2008 at 12:00PM: My daily deal for today is for the Koss SA-10 portable speaker dock.

The 2 AA batteries keep the speakers powered for up to 10 hours of continuous playback. The Koss SA-10 is on sale at 1 Sale A Day, and is being sold for $0. Of course, the catch is that you ...
