How often can you say you brought your iPod to the party or a buddy's house only to find out there are no speakers there or you don't have the proper cord? What do you do? You bring along your trusty Tunebug Vibe is what you do. This palm-sized device turns any surface it's laid on into a speaker system. That's right, your coffee table has just become the new life of the party.
Now obviously not up to the caliber of a fully integrated home system, the Tunebug Vibe does a pretty decent job considering its size and the originality of the concept. For only 70 bucks, you can turn your furniture into a boombox.
