I have a 30G Viedo IPOD. I am currently lookign for a few things.

1) Speakers- I would liek to get a nice set of speakers for my apartment. I have been looking but I find good and bad reviews for every speaker system sold on the itunes store. I want somehting that has good quality sound, can be played at a good loudness and I want a remote control. What are you suggestions?

2) I want to get a charger that I can plug into a wall outlet so I can charge my ipod when away from my computer. I foudn a docking station that says it has that ability but the pluf is not sold with the docking station and I do nto see anyhtign else for the wall on the itunes store. I realyl don't want to get the wall plug that has a USB connection cause that means I would have to buy and extra USB connector or carry my original around everywhere I go. Please help.

1. What is your budget? Does the system need to be portable? If you are looking for relatively high-end speakers, you might want to read this article at Ars Technica. You might also just want to get some good speakers for your computer and not worry about using the iPod with them.

2. I think your best option is probably to get the wall adapter

You might also want to invest in a spell checker

Ok speakers- I guess my price range is this - I want to get back in quality what I put in on price. Meaning I want speakers that sound good and work well. Price is not a huge concearn but I would like to find somethign that is nto super expensive. I mean $300 is doable but if I could find something for $200 or less that works jsut as well then I wil lgo for that.

I want speakers that are jsut for the IPOD. I do not have a home stero and my computer is in my bedroom. I want something that I can put the IPOD in and use a remove to scroll thru songs and play the music in my living room.
