Simple Kit Turns iPod Nano Packaging into Speakers

I love this kit from Bird Electron which makes it dead simple to turn the hard plastic case of the iPod nano into a simple portable speaker. It’s about $20 and appears to just slip right in—you’d just need to drill a hole for the miniJack.

   Can an iPod Nano actually drive speakers on it’s own?

   This company should also make an Altoids tin lid replacement for the DIY amp builders out there, but I’d rather see some microdrivers in there as opposed to these tiny tinny speakers.
