Case w/ Built-In Speaker
I saw Meade 5-Star cases with built-in speakers at Big Lots, and picked one up thinking there had to be a use for them. After a few weeks, it occurred to me that my PRS-505 might just fit.

Take a look at the pics below:

Where exactly are the speakers? I can't see them in the pictures. All I see is what appears to be the battery pack.

Anyway, who uses the audio player on the Reader? If you enjoy listening to music while you read, the Reader plus a dedicated mp3 player is the better way to go IMO.

The speakers use the entire cover of the case to project the sound, which is quite a bit better in terms of volume and battery life than most compact speaker systems.

That would involve keeping 2 batteries charged. I find the single device of the reader to be sufficient for listening to an audio book now and then.
