Linx B-Tube: Bluetooth speakers for fun in the sun

There's no better way to start a Monday morning this summer than to wake up with music. Even better is being able to choose those early-morning beats from the comfort of your bed. This is one of the many joys Bluetooth provides us, and today it comes in the form of the B-Tube from Linx.

The aluminium B-Tube looks like those cylindrical tubes of sweets you get from Woolworths at Christmas. Any Bluetooth-enabled device -- such as Samsung's excellent YP-T9 or any of the Sony Ericsson Walkman phones -- can be paired with the B-Tube, providing good-quality audio without wires. It'll also act as a speakerphone, thanks to a built-in mic.

If you don't have Bluetooth on your music-player, just plug any device into it with a 3.5mm audio cable. The rechargeable battery will last for up to 8 hours, so if you're off on holiday this summer, it's an ideal companion that'll set you back under £50.00!

Summary

This stylish innovative hands free B-TUBE sound system is designed to use the latest Bluetooth 2.0 technology and enables users to transfer A2DP stereo music from a mobile phone, computer and MP3 player wirelessly and effortlessly up to a range of 10 meters!

The internal built in microphone also enables users to make and receive calls from any Bluetooth enabled mobile phone providing users with easy hands free conversations without being glued to a phone!.  Ideal for impromptu conference calls!

The Linx B-TUBE is feature-packed and provides a musical experience that will compliment any modern living and work space with its high quality aluminum construction.
Banish those unsightly wires; sharpen up your interior design and save valuable living and work space at the same time. Thanks to its small footnote, the Linx B-TUBE can be tucked away when not in use saving on valuable desk or home space. Cable management headaches will soon be a distant memory!

The Linx B-TUBE has been designed with unbeatable ease-of-use in mind but also with fantastic sound quality to boot. The Linx B-TUBE-sound system packs in the latest technology to deliver great volume, ease of use and above all a great hands free sound experience.

Powered by a rechargeable li-ion rechargeable battery the Linx B-TUBE offers more than 8 hours of play time and can be easily powered by the AC adapter that comes as standard.
