bi-fold design may or may not be in black friday 2013

When I received the Bose SoundLink II I knew that it did not include a remote or additional features. It is a bare-bones bluetooth speaker. But many other bluetooth spekars include useful additional features such as a remote, speakerphone capability and USB charging capability. If you plan on using this speaker in a vehicle, having speakerphone capability is a big plus. Some competing products such as the EcoXbt Grace Digital ECOXGEAR ECOXBT Rugged and Waterproof Wireless Bluetooth Speaker (Black) or the Jambox Jawbone BIG JAMBOX Wireless Bluetooth Speaker - Graphite Hex - Retail Packaging, include these useful extra features. I'm not saying either of those other speakers are comparable sounding, I'm just saying that there are lots of bluetooth speakers out there in the marketplace and many offer additional features at less cost. Battery life is unchanged from the previous SoundLink and provides a maximum of 8 hours using the same 1700mAh battery, but you'll rarely see that kind of life especially if you listen at higher volumes. Typically you can expect more like 4-5 hours of sound at louder listening levels. Bose offers an optional car charger, Bose® SoundDock Portable® and SoundLink® car charger that will allow you to simultaneously charge the SoundLink as you listen to it but as far as I know there is no USB charging option which is a pretty big disappointment for me. The speaker cover is user replaceable but the bi-fold design may or may not be an improvement depending on your use of the speaker. In the house where it will typically be on a shelf or table, the reduced footprint of the speaker may be a benefit. However for outside use, or in a car or boat, the reduced footprint results in significantly reduced stability and the speaker is prone to tipping over backwards if bumped or as a result of sudden movement or change in attitude.As this speaker utilizes a passive, rear facing speaker, optimal sound is realized only when the rear firing speaker has a reflective surface such as a wall behind it. Thus if using the speaker outdoors, unless it is against a wall of some sort, bass reproduction will be reduced. And another consideration of this type of speaker is that it is not intended to be put in an enclosed space such as a cubby hold in a desk or something as that will adversely affect the sound. & Black Friday discount sale on Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Professional Studio Monitor Headphones & Black Friday cheap deals on Ultimate Ears BOOM Wireless Bluetooth Speaker and Cyber monday low price on Bose® SoundDock® 10 Bluetooth® digital music monday & Black Friday hung saving price in Beats Solo HD On-Ear & Black Friday discount sale on Miles Davis Trumpet High Performance In-ear Friday and Cyber monday cheap deals on Beats Wireless On-Ear Headphone (Blue) Friday and Cyber monday huge saving deals in Uniden Public Safety Receiver & Black Friday special offer in Phiaton PS 210 BTNC Bluetooth 3 & Black Friday cheap deals in Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, 250 ohms and Cyber monday discount cheap on Sennheiser HD25-1 II Closed-Back Headphones 2013 Friday and Cyber monday discount cheap on Sennheiser Momentum Headphone -
