Ever felt your iPod nano lacked something? Perhaps legs to make it walk together with you or a head to swing to the coolest of Raggae tunes? Creative thought it needed a cool pocket-sized speaker, so it decided to build it one. And here I am introducing the Creative TravelSound for the iPod nano.

Before we get into the technical detailing, let's see what Joseph Liow, Vice President, Personal Digital Entertainment Products of Creative Technology Ltd. and General Manager of Creative Labs Asia, had to say, shall we? “The Creative TravelSound for iPod nano has a slim, hand-held design that complements the iPod nano. Just slide the player into the compact speaker and you can either hold them in your palm, or put them in your pocket or purse [...] By using the latest in speaker and digital amplifier technologies, we are able to combine real style with amazing performance for hours of entertainment anytime, anywhere.”

Now that we've heard him, let's see what this iPod nano speaker really has to offer. Well, it has an integrated FM radio tuner for the fourth generation iPod nano, a built-in Li-Po rechargeable battery that offers up to 15 hours and is rechargeable via the dock's USB port. The dock also functions as a stand for allowing users to view photos and videos and also turns itself off automatically.

So, if you're searching for a really good iPod nano speaker dock that does a lot more than just let you listen to music, take a look at this new gadget from Creative. It might be just the thing you are looking for. Or it might not be; either way, there's nothing to lose, right? The device will cost around 149 USD in case you decide to purchase it. Although I do not know why you would spend that much for so little.
