Conclusion

For CDMA networks, the Altec Lansing's inMotion iMT1 makes a great speakerphone, charger, sync cradle, and a very good music station. One beautiful little box � four functions. It delivers exactly what you need for conferencing around it during a meeting - namely, plentiful volume at excellent sound quality. For music, its audio quality is amazing for its size, but limited by its size. The optional subwoofer would surely help put more Hi (well actually more low) in its Fi.

Pros
  • Attractive, beautifully graces any conference table
  • Simple setup�clear instructions in the minimalist manual
  • Charging and sync cradle, speaker phone, and music system in one compact unit
  • Intuitive controls, attractively lit by LEDs
  • AC and battery power (four AA) options
  • Auxiliary sound input for MP3, CD, DVD player, etc.
  • Treo charges while docked (USB hookup cable required)
  • Actual humans answer the support line
  • Cons
  • Does not work with Treos that are on GSM networks (They tell you that on the box, and they are right!)
  • Sound distortion easily perceptible at highest volume setting
  • Max volume lower when unit is battery powered (though that saves battery life)
