Being slim is literally all the rage these days.  I just posted my review of the Hercules 2.1 50 Speaker System to high praise and now the company is debuting a sleeker and more futuristic slim version.

This new multimedia speaker line claims to be among the slimmest satellite  speakers available and is compatible with PC’s, gaming consoles, TV’s, and CD/DVD players.

The Hercules i-XPS 120 Portable iPod Outdoor Speaker might be one of many in a long line of Apple iPod accessories, but at least it will protect your player from the pool or beach side elements.  A water tight door keeps it dry while a set of exterior buttons lets you control what is playing without having to remove it from the dock.  It’s also shock proof in case your drunk friend stumbles over it and runs off 4x C batteries, AC plug or car adapter.  Yours for $99.95.
