Portable Speakers

[Bateluer]

Since my notebook has anemic speakers, and I can't take my the 2.1 Creative speakers across the country when I visit family next month, I was looking at these. Creative TravelSound 200

I don't expect them to match any solid set of desktop speakers, but I'm hoping they'll be better than my notebook's tiny speakers. Granted, that isn't hard to do.

Anyone know anything about these speakers? They seem like they'd be very good speakers for a portable device.

These are specifically designed for notebook use. But they cost more, natually.

This is why I invest in headphones.

Got a nice set of headphones. Perhaps I should elaborate a little more.

When I vist family, I usually stay at my parents house, guest room. My brothers and I will usually play LAN games a lot when I'm there, for that, headphones are ideal. However, we often watch movies and videos on my notebook, and headphones just don't work for that sort of thing. I'm thinking these TravelSound models will provide a solution that fits in my laptop carrying case with ease, and provides the benefits that head phones cannot provide. And believe me, the built in speakers on my notebook are weak to the point of useless.

Ah, well..I do not doubt the laptop speakers suck, but the question is, just how much better are the travelsounds?
