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.

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.

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.
Not going to be using Amazon again

Amazon.com Product Description
Made for sitting stylishly in your office or living room, the svelte inMotion IM500 speaker dock for iPod nano is also made for easy portability. Amazingly flat, the speakers panel folds flat onto the integrated iPod docking station to become just 0.7 inches thin (17mm) for easy transport. It also weighs just 12 ounces, and comes with its own protective carry pouch. Despite its size, the IM500 is no wilting flower thanks to its innovative speaker cone design and MaxxBass technology, which delivers deeper, richer, more natural bass frequencies.
Amazingly thin and light (just 12 ounces) for easy portability.

The IM500 flips open to create a stand at the press of a button, revealing the back that includes a mini USB 2.0 connection for syncing your iPod to your PC, as well as a special 2.5mm auxillary line-in port for connecting other digital audio players (such as larger iPods) or portable CD players. (The IM500 comes with a 3.5mm adapter cable to accommodate players with connections of this size.) The front of the unit includes the iPod nano dock as well as a power button and volume up/down buttons.

When using the included AC power adapter, your iPod nano will automatically recharge when docked with the iM500.

The broad-faced speaker cones provide a generous surface area that drive an impressively big sound from such a compact speaker system. The integrated MaxxBass technology isn't your standard bass boost feature. It uses a patented psychoacoustic algorithm that enable you to hear bass far below the physical limitation of the speakers by taking advantage of the latest research in how sound is perceived. With MaxxBass, you can hear frequencies up to 1.5 octaves below what is generated.

Customer Reviews:
Great sound for your iPod Nano, very reliable, great price.......2007-12-16
I've owned the IM500 for over a year and it is much more than a great iPod Nano amplifier. Sure, I use it for my iPod but the AUX input jack also makes it a great speaker system for your laptop computer. It folds down flat and fits perfectly in my laptop case. So whenever I'm on the road, this is the sound system I use for DVD movies, Internet gaming, or iPod play in my hotel room. The sound is wonderful with built-in bass boosting, and it's always worked like a champ.
I read the Amazon review by the person who said their iPod "fried" when they first plugged it into this unit. That seems very unlikely to me. How would a power surge get past the IM500's AC transformer? I suspect that was a defective iPod about to die when they plugged it in.
Ignore the rest, this is best Nano dock for the price, and perfect for your laptop computer too.
Great Product. Even works with the new iPod Classic.......2007-12-04
I just bought this product a couple of days ago and so far its a great product.
Pros: Charges the Ipod, Great sound for such a small speaker, Compact and Concise, Very Portable, Easy to Operate, Even works with my Ipod Classic. So if you don't have an ipod nano, it still will work with your ipod.
Cons:Kind of hard to press the power button, It Takes 6 AAA batteries.
Other than that, If i were you, I would go out and buy this product instantly.
This is a great little portable iPod Speaker Dock!.......2007-11-03
The Altec Lansing inMotion IM500 Portable Audio System for iPod is perfect for my needs for a small (it's really tiny), powerful iPod (and other audio) speaker system. It's battery powered (you can use 6 rechargeable or regular alkaline AAA batteries), or you can opt for the included AC adapter.
Sound is phenomenal, and I can use this with the 2G Nano OR with the new 3G Nano with video OR the new iPod Touch with video! You can listen to music or watch a video with full audio while it's docked. Granted, the 3G nano screen is small, but since Apple has packed the screen with over 160 pixels per inch, it's amazingly viewable at close range. You could also theoretically watch videos on the Touch, but you have to turn the IM500 on its side for that. It works but is awkward and doesn't stand up on its own.
The unit comes with an audio plug which allows you to connect other MP3 players or gadgets. I can also use this with a 2G iPod Shuffle as well as a Sirius Stiletto 100 portable Satellite Radio (using high-quality WiFi streaming mode) to create a totally portable Satellite Radio speaker system! Very cool!
Good sound, great portability.......2007-10-31
Bought this unit for the express purpose of having music available in the hotel room when traveling. For portability it can't be beat: about the size of a thin travel guide and packs easily in a backpack or suitcase. Sound is quite appealing for its size and purpose. Impressive bass, good clarity. Overall I would highly recommend this product. Only complaint (kind of anal but I'm an engineer) is the 2G Nano does not fit properly on the unit. The 2G connector is offset an additional 0.125 inches or so causing the iPod to sit off center in the unit's recessed area. Does not affect performance, just looks like a poor design.
Much Better than I Expected.......2007-08-25
This very compact speaker system is amazing. I bought it for for travel when I don't want to use earphones as I'm moving around the hotel room. The unit is extremely compact and THIN. It can easily slip into a (nearly full) briefcase, and it is specifically made for the Nano.
In this context, I normally listen to light classical, chamber music, and some new age. For this music the sound is very full, balanced, and pleasing. I am a recreational woodwind player, and I especially like the clarity and character of the sound overall. I suspect that it may not be good for rock music with a heavy rhythm track, pipe organ, or other music with lots of bass. The volume is ample for my use is fairly quiet environments, but a larger and more powerful unit may be better in very noisy situations. For my use, this speaker system is essentially perfect.

Happy Customer.......2007-11-21
This unit is extremely compact, yet gives good sound and volume. Good battery life. Charges ipod when used with A/C adapter. Nicely designed. Altec Lansing has corrected the complaints I had with an earlier model.
Not happy...it was a gift and receipent is very disappointed.......2007-11-12
this was a gift for my daughter and she was very please to receive it. had some alligment problems when attempting to use adaptor for here Nano. very dispointed. currently its useable and making attempts to get some correction to the problem.
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".

Great sound for mobile applications.......2007-12-26
The Altec Lansing IM7 speaker system is the "biggest bang for the buck!" It is wonderful sound for such a portable system. The volume and richness of the bass is incredible for such a small, light package. It is very versatile.
Rich sound.......2007-12-22
I am very pleased with the sound produced by this unit! Sound is rich and full. No distortion when the volume is cranked. Wish I had bought this much sooner!
amazon harassment.......2007-12-17
why is amazon harassing me to review this product? i get an e-mail at least twice a week asking me to review it. why?
excellent sound.......2007-12-15
excellent sound, easy to use. treble and bass are hard to adjust because you can only adjust using the remote. there is no guage. works just as well with 110 or battery.
Faulty Door Latch.......2007-12-08
Although I love the look and the sound blew me away, I am very disappointed the sturdyness of the iM7. After a few months the latch stopped working. They discontinued making them so I have to chose between them replacing with an iM9, which I hear doesn't have the same sound quality or an M602, which isn't portable like this one. I wish I read these reviews before making my selection. If anyone knows how I can fix the latch myself..I'd be grateful.

Altec Lansing Audio System I-Pod.......2007-12-07
We are very pleased with the speakers good sound reproduction.Excellent for travel,I can listen to my music anywhere.
Great iPod speaker with nice size and sound.......2007-11-25
Admittedly, I'm a fan of Altec Lansing products anyway, but this little unit was a terrific purchase for my daughter's iPod. Lightweight, simple but nicely manufactured design with good sound quality. Not a big booming sound capability, but this unit not marketed that way. Very good small/medium room sound, but lacks the power for capable outdoor use. I like the AC and battery power options. Came with a small IR remote, which works okay, but nothing spectacular. Easy to fold up and transport. Battery life is good, but not great. Liked the sound & quality of this iPod speaker well enough that I bought another Altec Lansing iPod speaker for my wife's iPod Mini. Very satisfied with both devices.
Altec Lansing IM3C - Excellent unit.......2007-10-27
Probably THE best battery-powered iPod speaker set on the market at time of writing. Sound is as loud and clear as 2W RMS speakers can deliver, and the battery life seems good.
Very small portable unit - works with all iPods to date.
Only two things that stop me giving it 5 stars:
The cradle isn't a true 'universal' cradle in that it will not fit ipods with skins [iSkin etc] on - you'll have to pop your pod out to fit in.
The remote control is a bit weak in range/direction/reliability but this isn't exactly the selling point of the unit
My unit did have a faulty power adapter included but they shipped me a new one no questions asked and I had it in less than a week - it works perfectly now. I spent some time researching these units, and this is/was the best.
I also have it's larger brother the M602 - that is probably the best mains-powered ipod speaker set out now.
A fabulous portable speaker system.......2007-09-27
The Altec Lansing inMotion audio system for i-pods is a fabulous, compact speaker system. the sound is incredible given the size and I occasionally use it at home when I am moving about the house or sitting on the porch. It is easy to pack and given the usual miserable radios provided in most hotels, it is a great comfort when travelling. It is easy to use once you figure out how to open it! The instructions, as usual, are poor and it takes some manipulation but once you hvae done it for the first time it's easy.
Great sound, could accomodate my original iPod.......2007-09-19
I was very pleased with this product simply because it has attachments to fit all iPods. The iPod I wanted to use for these speakers was the first model made and I was worried that many of the speaker systems would only work with the newer iPod models. This one works great and charges my iPod while playing which is great. I use it in my nursery and it is very compact with clear sound. I would definetely recommend this product!
