I was thinking more along the lines of something like these

thanks in advance
I have the Kinivo ZX100 and iHome IHM60PT and they both work equally well. I like the Kinivo the best, it has a wrap around cord along the base, the sound is a tiny bit better and I like the style better than the iHome. Both have a lot of positive reviews. I have had them both a year and a half and they still work. There are probably newer models now. The price point for both are $20 or less so I would call the sound quality fantastic. I use them with my iPhone, iPad and pre-iPad my Kindle Fire. They are both very small and fit in the palm of my hand. I cannot tell you exactly how long they will last but I have used both around 4 hours straight without recharging.
