Possibly The Best Speakers Ever

Well, by best I mean the best form factor.

I introduce to you the Speak-er:


It's not just a single speaker but a pair, so you can enjoy listening to James Taylor's new album in glorious stereo!!

It's like those simple stereo speakers you get with PCs or those travel speakers. Plug in a stereo source like an mp3 player (coz not everyone has an iPodPhoneBookPro) or a laptop (coz some people don't have net books... yet), then connect the left speaker to the right speaker, plug in the power and pump up the volume and you're good to go.
Seeing as it has a power supply, I'm not too sure if it'll work as a passive speaker set so you can enhance the ghostly echoes of Enya with faint tinny sounds.

Anyways here's some specs I stole (believe them at your own risk):

• 2" full range [I have no clue what this means]
• Power: 6 watts per speaker
• Dimensions: H4" x W6" x L2"
• Input Impedance: >5k Ohm
• SNR: >70dB
• Frequency Response: 60-120kHz
• Input Sensitivity: 400mV for rated power
• Max Power Consumption: 20 watts
  

Pricing is at $120 (USD I thinks - come on exchange rate!), and I've been told shipping to the UK is about $50 on top.
These aren't out until April, and then there's only going to be 1,000 of them. But you can reserve yourself a set here (like I did yesterday).

Actually, you know what... speech bubbles would be cool as cuff links.
