Found this little cute thingy (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2185) and decided to try seeing the incredible price.

I cant believe that thing will sound decent at all it is just too small the bass i imagine would be pathetic. My sister has a similar thing which she uses for listening to audio books which it is fine for.

Could be, except that the Macally only uses one AA battery and plays just as long. Plus the battery is included.

Thanks for the post, Captain!
I just ordered one of these. I was looking for a cheap pair of portable speakers to do just what you were doing in the video - watching family guy, on trips etc...

Lol yeah, dealextreme is fun that way, their item description often contradicts what the package says, because they dont lie.
take a look at the staff revieew of these rechargeable batteries for instance:

2000mah sounded good for that price, then i read what they'd written and stayed away :D
