Put your headphones in storage and enjoy full freedom of movement while listening to your iPod with the Altec Lansing iM3c portable iPod speaker system. The iM3c comes with a built-in docking station that not only holds most dock-connecting iPods, but also syncs and charges them, so you don't need to independently connect your iPod to your Mac or PC to sync your iTunes playlists. More importantly, the speaker system sounds crisp and full bodied, with four custom-designed 1-inch neodymium microdrivers and an integrated MaxxBass system that rounds out the low- frequency response.
The iM3c is a must for backyard parties and beach barbecues, as it not only folds up into a compact 8-by-5.5-by1.1-inch footprint (W x H x D), but also runs for more than 24 hours on four AA batteries (not included). Other details include a wireless remote control; an auxiliary input for connecting a second audio device; a universal power supply for listening at home; an auto shutdown function; and a protective carrying bag for easy transport. Compatible with the iPod 3G, iPod 4G, iPod mini, iPod photo, iPod video, and iPod nano, the iM3c weighs a mere 15 ounces and is backed by a one-year warranty.

Altec Lansing inMotion IM3c.......2007-10-25
Great product, excellent sound quality, small profile and easy to use. I bought one for myself and then later for my father, he is happy with his as well.
Travel speakers.......2007-10-22
A good item to have for traveling. It is small when open and folds up for easy transportion. Keep in mind, it is not a whole house stereo. Just a way to listen to music in a smaller setting. And it works well for this. Follow the instructions for actually turning the unit on and it makes a good player for a hotel room. The music is clear and it beats the standard clock radio usually found in a hotel room. Just don't expect this item to do what it isn't designed to do.
Great portable speaker.......2007-09-10
The sound quality of the IM3c is very good at the mid to low level. This speaker system is solely used in my office, so cranking it up too loud is not an option. Its compact size makes it easy to place virtually anywhere. One feature I really like is the volume stays the same after turning the unit back on after it has been shut down, unlike the "JBL On Stage".
Amazon.com Product Description
Taking its cue from the iPod itself, the Altec Lansing inMotion iM3 portable audio system packs a powerful collection of features into a compact, portable body. The system, which was designed exclusively for the iPod, is roughly the size of a paperback book, yet each of its sleek speakers delivers crystal-clear, vibrant sound, letting users share their iPod libraries at the park, in a hotel suite, or anyplace else where a set of headphones just won't do. An efficient Class D amplifier powers the four full-range 28 mm neodymium micro drivers, which provide impressively rich and clear high- and mid-range tones. Meanwhile, the system's MaxxBass technology boosts the bass with subwoofer-like results--a rare feature in such a small system. The iM3 also includes a built-in docking station that makes it easy to synchronize, recharge, and transfer data from your iPod while giving users convenient access to the click wheel. And when you're ready to hit the road, the docking station and stand fold up flat against the speakers to fit inside the included carrying bag. At a mere 8 by 5.5 by 1.1 inches (W x H x D), the system is perfect for the light traveler.
Listeners can operate the iM3 from a distance thanks to the included remote control, and should users get distracted for any length of time, the system shuts down automatically to conserve power. Additional features include a secondary input jack for connecting to other audio devices, such as laptops, older iPods, or other MP3 players (cable included), and an extra-long battery life (24 hours of continuous playback with four AA batteries). If you want to enjoy great sound everywhere you go while still preserving the portable convenience of the iPod, the iM3 is an ideal choice. Just listen.
What's in the Box
inMotion iM3 audio system, wireless remote control, iPod mini adapter, carrying bag, audio cable for secondary audio devices, user's manual.

Altec lansing inMotion IM3c Portable Audio System.......2007-08-06
Great system! Sounds very clear and it is very easy to connect on your iPod. They came with international jack plugs for traveling and a pouch to carry on. We love it.
Great Little Product for the iPod.......2006-10-15
Just purchased this inexpensive little unit and am amazed at the sound quality for such small speakers. It does just what it's intended to do - produce a very reasonable quality of sound from a portable unit. I had no trouble at all with the remote - it turns the unit on and off and controlled the volume and the iPod from a good 10 feet away. My only real complaint is that the instructions are woeful! Altec Lansing could do well to improve their in-box instructions which are far below the quality of the unit itself. I was almost ready to return my unit initially when I discovered - only by accessing Altec Lansing's web page for the iM3 - that I had to remove the not-too-obvious plastic dock adaptor that was already in place to put in my iPod 4G 60GB photo. Otherwise it is an excellent buy in my opinion and would be extremely hard to beat for the price.
IM3 IS AS IM3c .......2006-06-23
When I bought it couple weeks ago. I look out side the box is IM3, But inside the box speaker is IM3c. I call the company, they told me IM3 is as IM3c. They said someone on the internet sell the IM3 is all same with the IM3c, And IM3c also support the Ipod video too.
Basic, light weight, portable speakers.......2006-05-07
I bought mine for travel purposes and use the JBL On Stage more when I am at home. The JBL does sound better but I got a decent price on the Altec, it would dock and charge my ipod mini and also had the battery option. So I took it on vacation with me and it worked well but it did use 1 set of batteries per night. Thats 4 AA per night. Not exactly cheap.
I think that those who complain about the lack of battery options in other speakers do not quite understand exactly how many batteries they will be using. I was out of the country but I still wish now that I wouldve taken my "heavy" adaptor with me. You live and learn. I guess everyone has special needs, but in this case I can tell you 1 set of 4 batteries would last only 1 night.
So, these are a decent set of speakers if the price is right. Packs well for travel but dont expect mindblowing sounds as its just a tiny lightweight speaker system. Its ok, Id give it more of a 3.5 star if I could.
Good little speakers!.......2006-04-15
I am very happy with this product. It folds super slim, so traveling with it is a breeze! Pretty good sound - not Bose quality, but for the price, very respectable! I've had it almost a year, and it has been along on many weekend get-aways, and works great. I use it alot, so it was a good purchase for me.
