Mate has B&w Zeppelin - which he rates. Think they do a small version now but probably still pricey. The JBL stuff always looks good. Other interesting thing I've seen is a plexi glass 'dock' which amplifies sound. Obviously only useful if you have iPhone with built in speaker. Can't remember make though could be Belkin?

Look no further than Bose. Amazing sound quality but you'll pay for it. The portable version is well tidy and you can unplug and get up to 10 hours juice out of the internal lithium.
I bought one just before Xmas with £100 of an iPod with it happy days

Got to be the Bose Soundock. Much reduced from the two I bought last year. Sound brilliant and ideal for kitchen/ BBQ.
