Mini Speaker, Not so Mini Sound

I've been looking for a portable speaker to use with my laptop and Blackberry for those situations where I must have music or bumped up sound. I admit, when I saw this little thing at Brookstone's O'Hare Airport store, I passed it right by. It's tiny, toy sized and comes in sexy red, deep blue and black. But, the helpful salesman who shared a love of Pandora radio and Blackberries plugged this one into his phone, fired up some music, and I was sold (especially when he told me that other mini speakers require bothersome battery changes and this one has a handy dandy little USB plug that hooks up to your laptop for charging the rechargeable battery). Even better, it comes already charged, so I was able to start using it as soon as I arrived at my CD-player-less hotel room in Texas. I love Brookstone, and they love me (at least according to the salesman who made the fastest sale of his life last Friday).
