I got my free Podwave iPod Portable Speakers from MacConnection today and I can honestly say they are worth every penny!
Since my iPod died I had to try them out with my wife’s. Even at full volume the audio is soft, but reasonably clear. Macally claims up to 8 hours of continuous use for the single AA battery that powers the speakers, which are a bit shorter and thinner around than an iSight. When I do get my iPod shuffle (the Podwave came in two days, but the shuffle is on backorder) it will be smaller and lighter than the speakers, which should make for an odd coupling.
Unfortunately, the free offer ($29.88 with a $29.88 rebate) seems to be over. I couldn’t find any mention of it when I just now checked the MacConnection site. I personally wouldn’t recommend them at full pop (they list for $39), but if you can find a deal somewhere else, I’d say they’re worth the $8.82 I paid for shipping (for both the speakers and the iPod).
