Hi. An update on the Creative TravelSound speakers...
I thought originally that the additional $10 instant rebate was only give on the web site, but I decided to get into CompUSA and much to my pleasant surprise, the speakers rang up with the $10 instant rebate as well, along with a rebate slip for another $20 off via mail. I hooked them up briefly to my PacMate and played an mp3 and I was truly surprised. They had an extremely clean sound with articulate bass, and smooth well balance treble. For speakers this size, they're awesome, and for $39 after rebates, you can't beat them, at least not with anything else I have heard in that price range and size. The rebates are only good through this Saturday, so if you are in the market for something like this, grab one while the price is right.

Subject: Re: Great deal on a portable speaker Hi. I've had the Creative TravelSound speakers for nearly a year now and have used them both with a portable CD player and my Creative Jukebox. They are very compact and they do sound very good for their size. I would recommend them if space is a premium as I don't think you'll get anything else this size to sound this good.

According to the reviews, they sound great considering their small size. They are stereo, but it is a one piece unit about the size of a digital camera. Folks say you can actually get bass out of these little guys. Creative claims over 30 hours of battery life on 4 triple a batteries. This would be a great solution for attaching to your laptop, note-taker, or mp3 player. The retail price is $69, however, CompUSA has them for $39 after a ten dollar instant rebate, and a twenty dollar mail-in rebate. This offer is valid only until 05/22/04 via their web site. Below is the direct url to the product page. http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=303916 <http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=303916&pfp=ex ternal&tabtype=rb> &pfp=external&tabtype=rb If anyone gets these, please report back on how they sound. I'm still wavering between these and a Sony srs-t88 which is more expensive, but reportedly has even a better sound. For $39 however, I don't think you can go wrong with the TravelSound.
