Crave Summer: Super sun-kissed speaker selections

First up is Gear4's brand-new Bluetooth-enabled system, the HouseParty Blu. This black and silver audio fiend has an iPod dock that's compatible with any model of iPod with a universal dock, but it's also a terrific social setup too. The Bluetooth feature means all your buddies can beam their choice of music to the speakers without wires from, say, a Samsung YP-T9 or one of the many Walkman phones.

The one downside to this system is the lack of battery operation. This seems like a massive oversight, but it still means it's ideal for garden chill-out sessions with an power extension cable.

What if you don't have an iPod or a Bluetooth-enabled music phone? For you, Craveaholics, we have a treat next...
