LiveSpeakR features a set of speakers that fold-up and store behind the iPhone when they are not in use allowing for maximum portability. When the unit is stored (or hidden) it piggy-backs on the iPhone or iPod Touch making it portable for on-the-go multimedia. The style of the LiveSpeakR features design that is inspired by modern art. At launch the product will be available in black or white.
The system itself is ultra-portable and connects to a user’s media player using a specially made 4-in-1 “Super” cradle that also acts as a protective case. Using an innovative design the cradle can hold all versions of the iPhone and iPod Touch. The cradle then locks into place on the LiveSpeakR and rotates (functioning much like the handling of a Rubik’s cube) to interact with both the landscape and portrait positions within the media players. Then the user can simply turn the LiveSpeakR on to enjoy the high quality speakers that are shielded against the radio frequency interference. When the iPhone receives an incoming phone call, the music is automatically fades and the LiveSpeakR acts as a speakerphone enhancement, routing the call audio through the speakers and allowing convenient conference call capability.
