Bluetooth speakers have been around a while for use with notebooks, mobile phones, and MP3 players. Most of the Bluetooth speakers available aren’t really intended for outdoor use due to the fragile technology and lack of batteries.

CY-FI has released what it calls the world’s first Bluetooth sports speaker that is designed to be easily portable and used while biking, boating, camping and for other outdoor activities. The device supports Bluetooth-A2DP enabled cell phones, PDAs, and MP3 players.

The speaker is a bit larger than a standard deck of cars and weighs less than four ounces. The CY-FI speaker is designed for easy attachment to a bicycle stem, top tube or a backpack. In addition to being a speaker, the CY-FI can also be used as a hands-free Bluetooth speakerphone. Battery life is promised at up to six hours and the speaker can remotely control track, volume, and playlist. Pricing is unknown and the device is supposed to be available in later September.
