Everything is getting thinner these days…mobile phones, televisions, computers and of course, iPods. Today, Altec Lansing introduced the perfect companion for your ultra-thin iPod nano - - the inMotion iM500 portable audio system. This lightweight and impossibly thin carry-along is the most compact speaker system from Altec Lansing yet, with an efficient fold-away design, making it a cinch to toss into a small purse or bag for travel.

But great sound from such a small package? Absolutely. Altec Lansing utilized its decades of audio expertise to custom-engineer a cleverly thin speaker design. Audio volume depends on the measure of air movement within the speaker. Therefore, the iM500 uses innovative broad-faced speaker cones, which provide more surface area to drive more air within a small space. Further, the unexpected sound is enhanced by MaxxBass technology for greater bass performance and tuned to Altec Lansing audio standards for a richer overall listening experience. And, it’s all wrapped up in a package that’s similar in thickness to a DVD case.

Features
* Uber-thin design folds compactly for convenient mobility
* Superior MaxxBass technology for quality bass without a subwoofer
* AC or battery operated
* More than seven hours of battery life
* Built-in iPod docking station for data transfer and iPod recharge
* Auxiliary jack that allows users to plug in other audio devices,
including other iPod, CD, MP3 and portable DVD players

The iM500 folds to a close at 8.5″ wide, 0.7″ deep and 5″ high and weighs only 12 ounces. Six AAA batteries (not included) are required for battery operation. A protective carrying pouch will be shipped with the product.
