JBL OnBeat Venue LT and Micro are first speaker docks with lightning connector
JBL OnBeat Venue LT and OnBeat Micro are the first speaker docks with Apple’s new lightning connector. Do note that these two will not be compatible with older iOS devices with good old connector. You can connect the older devices to the USB port on the device which is very good thinking on JBL’s part. The best thing is that these two are targeted at budget consumers (we wonder if there are any budget conscious buyers of iOS products).
The first one is the JBL OnBeat Micro meant for smaller form factor lightning devices like iPod Touch and iPhone. Below is the images of this great looking speaker dock. OnBeat Micro is priced at $99.95 and comes with free shipping. You can order for this from this page
