Although the company is best known for its audio chairs, Pyramat has also released the Laptop Sound Booster ($129.95), which is demonstrated at CES 2008 (January 7-10, 2008)

The USB device features a pair of lit 1.5 in. ARX USB stereo speakers that amplifies your laptop’s audio. The until weighs approximately 5 pounds and USB powered. The Laptop Sound Booster ships with a 2-foot USB cable, 3.5 mm audio cable and an iPod universal dock with four adapters.

It’s also been built with heat dissipating material on the bottom and an ergonomic wrist pad. It also includes a volume control knob d audio inputs, so you can connect it to other devices (looks as if it is a 3.5 mm port). When using it as an iPod setup, you use 4 C-size batteries to power the speakers for up to 50 hours. Since it is basically a laptop pad with protruding speakers and wristpad, it can only hold laptops that are 17 in. wide or less.

The USB audio will work with any PC (Mac and Windows) and the input port means you can use it with most other audio devices. At approx. 5 pounds, though, I’m not sure I’ll be lugging this around with my laptop or able to easily fit it in the same bag.
