    CNET Review

    August 21, 2006

    The Good: The Altec Lansing iM500 portable speakers are superthin, attractive, durable, and very portable; can be powered by AAA batteries; include line-in port and cable; can be used as an iPod dock with a standard USB cable; excellent sound quality for the size.

    The Bad: The Altec Lansing iM500 would be better with a remote control; it's a tad pricey; flimsy design when no iPod is docked; dock is designed only for Nano; line-in port is not standard 3.5mm; no white version.

    The Bottom Line: If you're an iPod Nano user who likes to pack light and thin, most certainly check out the nice-looking and -sounding Altec Lansing iM500 speaker system.

    Review Summary: When your portable music player is so small that you can stick it in your pocket and not even feel it there, it's a shame to lug around large speakers.
