FCC excavation leaks details for larger Jambox Bluetooth Speaker
The Jawbone Jambox portable Bluetooth speaker is a must-pack item for travelers, but its small size means you're not using it to host dance parties or even as a permanent computer speaker at home. That may soon change, however, as an FCC excavation from Web sleuths at Wireless Goodness exposed Jawbone's plans for a larger, boom-box-style Jambox, codenamed "Big Jambox."

That may soon change, however, as an FCC excavation from Web sleuths at Wireless Goodness exposed Jawbone's plans for a larger, boom-box-style Jambox.
The code name right now is "Big Jambox," but the filing doesn't unearth much dirt aside from that and its Bluetooth connectivity. Depending on its size, however, the larger speaker will likely compete with larger iPod/iPhone speakers like the Fluance FiSDK500 and the Logitech S715i.
The 30-pin iOS dock connector on larger iPod speakers inherently creates tough competition for Bluetooth's sonic limitations, so it's possible that Jawbone will include a dock in the new build.
