Amazon.com Product Description
With 17 total watts of power, the compact and portable Altec Lansing iM600 Sound System gives you full optimized stereo sound from dual two-inch neodymium drivers, so you can enjoy your favorite iPod tunes at home or work. It features a built-in FM receiver, as well as an on-board rechargeable Lithium-ion battery that provides over seven hours of battery life before it needs recharging. The iM600 also boasts an Altec Lansing engineering innovation called the Stereo Field Expander, or SFX, which makes the speakers sound further apart than they actually are, resulting in a heightened stereo effect.
For added convenience, the stereo FM radio can double as a clock radio with station presets, LCD display and telescopic antenna for clear reception; simply plug it into an electrical outlet (the AC adapter is included). Superior bass enhancement technology means you can enjoy quality bass without a subwoofer, and the input jack makes it a snap to connect a second device, including CD, DVD and MP3 players. There's even a composite video out for playing your videos and photos for iPod on most TVs, while the built-in iPod dock allows for quick and easy data transfer and recharge. Additionally, this model syncs and charges all dockable iPod models.
Lightweight and easy to move, the iM600 conveniently folds up to 11.0 x 6.0 x 1.7 inches (WxHxD), and weighs just over two pounds, so you can truly take it anywhere. It comes with a wireless remote and AC adapter, and is fully compatible with iPod models that have the alarm clock and sleep timer features.
What's in the Box
inMotion iM600 mobile speaker system, wireless remote, iPod docking adapters, AC adapter, user's guide, and quick connect instructions.

This impressive package of features and sound is ultra portable, folding to the flat size of a small book. When fully opened, the iM600's slight footprint is the perfect audio solution in the home or office where space is at a premium.

Nice little portable audio system for iPod.......2007-12-26
I bought one of these for myself several months ago. It is a bargain for the price. Got a second one for my daughter this Christmas
Too Good To Be True!.......2007-12-26
Just received for Xmas after reviewing all of the Bose, Harmon Kardon, etc. on the market. The sound of this product is unbeatable and the price is half (or less) of the other audio systems.
AND....this product has a built-in 6-8 hour re-chargeable battery, to boot. Would recommend to all if you can get for $150 or less. Absolutely worth the money to make your iPod sing and charge.
Good features, ok sound........2007-12-25
I love the rechargable battery feature on this devise, it is working ok with my 160GB ipod classiv, the remote is ok too. Sound could probsbly be better. Anyway, it's good.
Good Sound, FM is a good add-on.......2007-12-25
This unit gives excellent sound, inspite of not having a subwoofer. Quality is good even at loud volume. Infact, it seems that the more I use it, the sound keeps getting better.
The only bad part is the cradle for keeping the ipod, which does not "hold" the ipod properly. The iPod only rests on it, and any mechanical shock might cause problems. You need to be extremely careful with that. (This is the only reason I've given it 4 stars, not 5)
Awesome.......2007-12-24
This product was reviewed by a a prominent magazine who rated it above more expensive units, and I agree wholeheartedly. The sound is much better than you would expect from such a small and compact unit, and it looks great too. I bought a second unit for my office. it folds up for compact storage and transport. I can recommend this unit without reservation.

Customer Reviews:
Alta fidelidad portátil para el iPod.......2007-12-25
I'm proceeding in spanish because there are so many good reviews in english for this product.
La iM5 es una unidad muy compacta, presentada en un cómodo maletín en donde se puede llevar todo el conjunto, incluyendo al iPod. En mi caso, lo uso con un iPod Nano 3G 8GB y funciona perfectamente, aún sin la base de ajuste que debería colocar.
El sonido es de alta calidad, suficiente para un ambiente de unos 20 m2 con un volumen bastante adecuado. Claro está, no es como para hacer una fiesta, pero si para ambientar una cena, reunión social u oficina. Toda la gama de sonidos se escuchan con claridad y sin distorsión, bajos, medios y agudos, incluso cuando se usa en exteriores con las 4 baterías AA.
Great speakers but poor durability.......2007-12-20
Got these speakers based on size, reviews and price. Used them right away and they sounded GREAT! Problem occurred only one week after use. My husband and I traveled out of state and took the speakers. Once we got unpacked we went to play our ipod and the on button flickered on but did not turn on. (must note that the speakers were carried on the plane, not checked). Not sure if it was a short in the power cord or what? Needless to say, the manufacturer is sending us a new one and I really hope we have no problems for I love the speakers!
Goood.......2007-12-19
I bought it as a gift for someone else, but after test-driving it, it sounds pretty decent. I haven't played with it too much, but it seems good overall.
great features, but problematic popping sound.......2007-12-17
I really liked the features on this speaker -- the international plug set and that it would charge my iPod -- and those features are great. The plugs are very well designed. However, two successive units made a popping sound, sometimes quite loud and frequent, when playing some (not all) files. The vendor took the first one back perfectly happily, but after the second one, I got fed up and just kept it because I wanted the plugs and because it doesn't always make the sound. But because of the popping I will probably get a different speaker unit to use around the house.
Do NOT purchase this or any other rodut from Factory Depot.......2007-12-11
I have no idea if the product is any good but after waiting weeks for a delivery I found out they can't ship. Don't send email as to why and don't answer the phone. What's even worse is that Amazon will not step in and offer a product solution.
They offer my $$ back but too late to get it delivered and wrapped and off to my son.
Bummer.

Open with blow torch only!!!!.......2007-12-24
While this may be a marvelous product, I am still trying to get throug the bubble wrap. I have so far ruined a pair scissors, a disposble scaple, and my temper. I will make a note NEVER to buy from this company again. I am tired of trying to open Fort Knox.
Verry Happy.......2007-12-15
I bought these as deal of the day and highly recommend these speakers. Ive never heard a small set of speakers sound so good. I would not pay the full +-$75 price though. I had to laugh at the review about trouble getting the packaging opened though because I thought I was going to have to break out the power tools to get this out of the packaging. I also agree that they should have made the sleeve big enough for the a/c adapter. My main concern is sound and price and this is deserving of 5 stars at the deal of the day price.
Great Sound Quality.......2007-12-12
I was looking for a speaker system that was small enough to carry in my purse (yes I have a large purse) yet had good sound quality. The small ones I had seen before purchasing this item had a tin sound or it sounded like it was in a well. People in my office were also amazed that the sound quality was as nice coming from such a small item (weighs just over 1 pound). Sound quality while using the batteries was as good as when using the included AC adapter. I am very happy with this item. To turn the item off, you just close the case and the power light switches off. For me, portability was priority with sound quality being second. However, with this JBL On Tour I was able to have both in one item.
Not bad...volume a little lower than expected.......2007-12-11
The sound quality is good for the price. I thought these speakers would blow my regular cheap desktop speakers out of the water. It is louder and a greater quality but not as much as I would have expected.
Pleasantly surprised!.......2007-12-10
I ordered these speakers as one of the "Deal of the Day" items last week. I've been wanting something like this because I love listening to my ipod while I work around the house, but I can't stand having the headphones on. Try cleaning the tub with the cords dangling everywhere!
So, with the price being right I ordered these speakers, fully expecting a much bigger unit. When the box arrived, I was dismayed at the packaging. It comes packed in that thick plastic that you need a strong pair of scissors and some luck from above to get open. A couple of bleeding knuckles later, and I was able to wrench it free from the packing. (thus my four star rating, rather than five. Any item that causes me to bleed automatically loses a star.)
I wasn't sure if this small little unit would deliver enough sound in my house that has 14' vaulted ceilings and an open floorplan. Boy was I surprised!! This thing sounds amazing! It's light and portable enough to carry from room to room, but I don't think I'll need to! I can just leave it set up in the kitchen and hear it all over the house.
I agree with others who say that it's too bad that you have to unplug the whole thing to close the lid but, like they also said, it's barely worth mentioning......barely.
I'm exceptionally happy with this unit.

Don't Leave Home Without It!.......2007-12-20
This is an absolute must-have for those who cannot be without their iPods and music while on the go. Perfect for the beach, a hotel room or visiting friends & relatives who aren't (and may never be) part of the iPod generation. I researched endlessly before purchasing my Altec/Lansing home system instead of the Bose (price, treble/bass functions, etc). With that major purchase out of the way, I still needed something that was highly portable but offered great sound output and had a generous battery life. I found it in this product. What a perfect companion piece. I take it easily from the office, back to home and then out with me again whenever the need dictates. Perfect, built-in carrying case. The only (and I mean only) issue I had was with the battery compartment cover. One of the prongs broke off when I was putting in a new set of batteries after receiving the item. Quite delicate. But, no worries. I slapped a piece of white duct tape on it and voila, it sits perfectly on a level surface and I can't see the tape. Other than that - this is a winner, hands-down.
MikeG.......2007-12-11
I was so impressed after hearing the quality of these small speakers that I ordered a second one for my daughter-in-law's small dvd player that needs sound enhancement for some dvd movies when playing. It is well worth the money, that's for sure!
Good Travel Speakers.......2007-12-08
This products work good for travel. It is small and compact and the case keep the speakers safe from bumps. I use it with a SanDisk player but it will work with any player with a mini plug input. The 3 d sound helps. The only con is if you have music with deep base. You may need to modify your base to not overload the speakers and distort the sound. Of course this is expected with speakers of this type and size. Overall a very good product to listen to your tunes in a hotel room while traveling.
Biggest Sound For the Buck.......2007-12-08
1 Great Sound with sufficient loudness that beats internal laptop speakers
2 Great packaging : comes in jewel like case which shows pride in the workmanship which appears excellent
3 Easy and versatile hookup : usb or batteries or external power supply
4 Positions nicely on top of laptop screem.
5 Hard to beat for the money approx 25 bucks including shipping
6 Exceeds expectations.
After reading the specs and some user reviews bought the speakers and was pleasantly surprised.
Best little ipod speaker.......2007-12-02
I bought this for my husband because sometimes his ipod is safer not hanging on his hip. I had tried another little one and it was awful but the reviews said this was a hit so I took a chance. I can plug it into my USB wall adapter (whatever it's called) that Apple makes, but the batteries have been good for almost two months now. It also folds up compact and protected and easy to carry around. I'm not good at the review thing, but I would highly recommend this product. I would buy one again if I needed another.
[I just want to thank all you reviewers out there who I count on for most of my purchases!]
