do we already have threads about this? i couldn't find any. anyway, i'd like to get some small speakers that i could use to listen to my ipod in my bedroom/on holiday - i have some lame unpowered ones but i'm sure i could do much better. suggestions?

Although mono, I find the Tivoli PAL to be ideal for iPod. The tuner is quite good as well.

I like these. But you could no doubt spend more and get better ones.

Altec Lansing's inMotion speakers are outstanding, if you're prepared to spend the cash -- loud enough to fill a room, and the iPod charges as you use them, assuming that an outlet is handy. Also, Bose has just introduced a set that takes the same basic design to Bose-type levels of excess.

I'm not so sure about those inMotion onex. they look nice though.

I second the inMotion speaker love- I have them, and move them around my house frequently to listen.
They are also a great travel alarm clock when you're travelling/on vacation. Set the alarm feature on the ipod, plug it into the inMotion, leave the speakers turned on, and you wake up to great music when you're away from home!! (more comfortable than sleeping in your headphones, methinks)
One other great thing, again for travelling- the inMotion will charge your ipod, as long as it's plugged into the wall- so the power cord for the inMotion essentially replaces that charging cord you would bring.
My 2cents.
