I can't help but admire the low-tech audaciousness of the I.Dear speakers — tiny cubes that give your iPod a voice. After all, their wood enclosures make them look almost like bamboo dice. But inside each one is a 1.5-watt speaker driver and a rechargeable battery rated to last 5 hours, which isn't bad for a gadget that's about 1 cubic inch in size.

Infinitely portable, the I.Dears have a carrying strap that's really begging for you to put keys on it. So even if they sound crappy, you at least get a pretty slick keychain for your hard-earned $45. Only in Korea, though, right now, lads. — Peter Pachal
