Looks good but pricey!
For $30 (US), I’m happy with my Logitech mm22 speakers.
They come with a hard case, fit all iPod models; AC/DC use;
can be hooked up to a laptop and sound great for the size!
If you work in a den of theives like I do or going to class to class on campus, you might want something cheaper in price.

Is it possible to store the iPod inside it when it’s closed?

I have seen and tested the i-Fusion. The i-Fusion battery is replaceable and very user friendly. There is a swing out compartment between the speakers that securely houses the iPod for travel. There is also a storage compartment that houses the battery and has a well for your earbuds. The i-Fusion comes with an AC adapter and when plugged in it will charge the battery and the iPod. A 30 pin connector port in the side of the unit allows you to download directly through the unit.

system is fantastic for the ipod. Speaker sound will take over an average size room (12 x 12. Convenient and compact. Would have preferred a black case. The “seamoss” color shows marks and handprints. Two of my relatives have purchased the ifusion after seeing mine. Very pleased.

I have the i fusion IPOD portable speaker system. I need to find the plastic holders for my IPOD and cannot locate where to purchase one. The IPOD holders hold the IPOD in the docking station.
