Nice little portable (battery or mains) bluetooth speaker, which (according to reviews) has a fairly decent sound quality. This usually goes for £25 - £50, depending on where you're shopping.
It's also available at Zavvi for the same price. Postage at iwoot is free and unconditional (free on orders over £10).
-- EDIT --
I received mine today, and I can confirm that I'm happy with the sound quality. It has a nice, all-round sound with decent bass; more bass than I would have expected from a speaker of this size (and price). I have a 'Pure One Elite' DAB portable radio and the sound quality on the Slam is at least as good, if not better than that.
There's no control on the Slam over EQ (bass and trebble) levels, but they seem to have it set up on a nice 'sweet spot', which I'm totally happy with.

12w for the price seems good, kitsound seem to be hit and miss as of late with all the cheap stuff you can find on the Vodafone store etc.

I've had my eye on this for a few weeks - just ordered one today after I looked it up on other sites going for £30+. Seemed like a no-brainer.

I have 2 of them. Absolutely fantastic sound. Lasts ages on batteries as well

No built-in rechargeable battery would put me off

That would be a selling point for me, if it took AA cells. But according to the Amazon product page it's C cells - no thanks.

Yes, C-cell batteries is a bit of a put-off. You can find rechargeable ones though, but since most of us don't have a C-cell charger, the reality price for this product is 12.99 + 16.44 for an RS universal charger and 3 x 3.41 for RS batteries = 39.66£...

Could use AA to C adapters (haven't ever tried them though) and it does come with mains adapter.
Not sold on it yet but it's on the top of my "what to spend to get £5 top cash back".
