Clip-on speakers?
Any tips as to good small external speakers to make the Fire louder but still somewhat portable and battery operated?

I figured there would be a selection for the PlayBook or Nook Color, but neither Blackberry's nor B&N's accessory stores has anything like that.

Thanks

Shame it doesn't have Bluetooth. I love my Jambox - it would have been the perfect speaker. Could still use it with a patch cable, but lose the wireless advantage.

Look for mp3 player speakers. Those should work I would think. I use one for my Sansa clip+. I haven't tried it on the Fire but I bet it would work.

I wish it had bluetooth to. Have a nice set of Motorola bluetooth headphones that would've been nice to be able to use with the Fire.

I picked up a rechargeable speaker for my sansa fuze. It lasts 8-10 hours on a charge and sounds pretty good for being a small speaker.

Brookstone has one that runs on 3 AAA batteries. I like the sound of this speaker better that the little rechargeable one, it's just bigger.
