Smartomi ANT 15

Sometimes one portable audio is a bit more portable than other portable audio. What the heck am I talking about? I’m talking about little speakers, people. Really little.

Case Boss Heavy Duty Protective iPhone Case might be better for touchscreen touchiness

caseboss heavydutyprotectiveiphonecase

I’ve tried a few über-protective cases for my iPhones, with mixed results.
