In the box: Docking station, adjustable stand, rechargeable adapter. It does not come with a USB cable.
Size test: When you put the latest iPod Nano (third generation -- short one with rounded corners) with the TravelSound i80 and you get a speaker about the size of a classic iPod. It passes the portability test -- lightweight and not bulky.
Sound test: I don't proclaim to be a pro when it comes to sound, bass, and synthesizers. So I couldn't evaluate the product at that level of detail. From what my family and I hear -- we think the speaker provides good sound quality for its size. The kids notice the bass doesn't come through as strongly as it does through headphones or the full-sized speaker we have. We still enjoy the music -- just not at its full bassy effect.
The other problem is that the speaker is on the back of the device. So if you're looked at the iPod (photos, lyrics, whatever) -- the speaker turns away from you.
Control test: Sometimes we have trouble adjusting the volume

Creative Labs, which I have known for their "Sound Blaster" sound cards for years, has put together a great little player for the 3rd Generation 4 GB Nano iPod. At about the same size as a "classic" iPod (those 80GB and 160 GB models) and with a color combination of "iPod white" plastic and a gray anodized aluminum metal finish, the i80 goes perfectly with the basic 4 GB iPod's metal finish.
The TravelSound i80 has many outstanding features: self-contained rechargeable batteries that give you over 15 hours worth of playing; a wall charger that allows the unit to play and recharge itself; it is small in size (even hooked-up with a 4 GB iPod it is as small as a "classic" iPod); it is easy to use all of the controls of the iPod while it is plugged-into the dock; and it has enough volume (that is controlled by the volume wheel on the side of the i80) that when you are on the beach, you will have to watch the volume or the lifeguard will be asking you to "turn it down!"

This is a nice little speaker to take to the beach or the park. I can keep it in my car and not have to worry about using my car for my music. However, as a speaker system, it's not the best. I paid $104 for my im600 Altec Lansing portable ipod speaker and it gives great bass, great sound, and is only two pounds. I can't hold it in my hand like the i80, but I'm not sure I'm willing to risk full-time sound quality for the convenience of holding a speaker in my hand.
Four stars for it's portability and convenience. It's a very nice package and looks great!
Minus one star for the price. Take about $40 off!
