I did a search, but didn't see a thread for the jambox. If I somehow missed it, or this should go in another forum (Omni?), please move/merge.

Does anyone have, seen, or used one of these?

I'm looking for a present for my partner, who is nearly impossible to shop for. He has an iPhone, iPad, Kindle Fire, and multiple computers around the house (including a Boxee and a media center), so I'm sure he'd be able to get this to work with something. He works from home exclusively (cleaned out his office 2 years ago), so may be able to also use it for the conf calling ability.

It gets pretty good (avg 4*) reviews on Amazon. Just wondering if the $199 price tag is worth it.

We do travel a bit, and I'm assuming this would easily fit in a backpack or suitcase... We'll usually use our Slingbox to watch TV from home, when we're in a hotel room and I'd assume this would give better sound than a typical laptop?
