Sony Ericsson could not have chosen the perfect time to launch their newest gadget, the M500 Bluetooth Portable Speaker System particularly well than this summer.

Aimed for those looking to add their own carefully selected playlist as a little background to the up and coming summer months, the MS500 Portable Bluetooth Speaker System has been designed specifically for the use of Sony Ericsson headsets but will also support A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth profiles. The MS500m has a 2-watt speaker designed for mobility and a durable splash proof shell that is proven to be resilient to any accidental knocks, scrapes and spillages. It also has a wrist-strap and hook allowing it to be tethered to any messenger bag.

Set to become available in black and orange and white and pink color schemes, the Sony Ericsson MS500 portable Bluetooth speaker system is powered by 2 x AA that allows for up to five hours of nonstop music.

Due out later this summer, the Sony Ericsson MS500 will provide Bluetooth connectivity in a water-resistant package. The sports clip and round shape look perfect for clipping to a backpack or bag so that you can hear your music while your phone is tucked safely away. The MS500 will have a range of 32 feet, and it has its own play and volume control buttons so that you can control the device from a distance.

Listening music while you are on a hike, biking, jogging or just lazily sitting on a bench in the park, the Sony Ericsson MS500 Bluetooth Portable Speaker is a perfect companion.
