It’s a press release, naturally, but I was intrigued by the product, so I’m passing it along. I imagine these coming along with kayakers and other “micro-mariners”. Thoughts?
San Diego, Calif. – (May 25, 2010) – Grace Digital Inc, a leading brand of wireless indoor & outdoor audio solutions, is pleased to announce the Eco Extreme. Whether you’re climbing to the highest mountain peak, kicking back on the beach, or just backyard grilling, the Eco Extreme provides quality sound and rugged protection for your iPod, iPhone, most cell phones and MP3 players. Affordably priced at $49.99 and available now at GraceDigitalAudio.com, the Eco Extreme is a must have for all your summer fun.
As summer approaches and weekend activities move to the outdoors, Eco Extreme’s water, sand, and shock proof outer casing offers protection from all the outdoor elements. The Eco’s built-in 3” full range front firing speaker provides Grace Digital Audio’s signature high quality sound.

Great little gadget. I especially like how the ipod or whatever can be stored inside the waterproof/sandproof box.
That could be good for home use replacing the old boombox.
