Flash back to the 1980’s where boom-boxes were shoulder candy and street tunes were everywhere. Portable stereo’s are making a comeback- so let your playlist get social with the inMotion Classic ($99) for iPods and iPhones by Altec Lansing. Lightweight, auxiliary in, serious volume, full featured remote and a five hour rechargeable battery makes a solid impression. In tests it was immune to mobile phone interference and the high-contrast LCD did a great job showing Digital FM tracks in direct sunlight. From shelf to shore this little companion is going to be music to your ears.
