My eardrums are currently being thoroughly attended to, serviced by the Bose Soundlink Mini bluetooth speaker . It's a nifty little, portable speaker--a handsome little guy, by the way, that cooperates quite well and plays well with other devices.

Portable speakers are known for being portable first, and sounding great...well, almost never. Bose is aiming to change that perception with the SoundLink Mini, a diminutive 1.5-pound speaker that connects to any device via Bluetooth.

Sturdy build quality; Rechargeable battery; Extremely portable; Pairs with up to six devices at the same time

No speakerphone support; Doesn't charge via USB

Portable Bluetooth speakers now have a host of features, from apps to speakerphones -- and some are even waterproof. Ultimately, though, the speakers have to sound good. The $199 Bose SoundLink Mini forgoes all of these niceties, instead focusing solely on making this device stand out in the audio...
