1. PARTY speakers from Parrot (Black Edition)

Price: Available this summer for $140

This portable, wireless speaker system lets you listen to music - beamed - from your phone or PC. It's also got a built-in technology called Near Field Communications (NFC), which allows users to pair it with a mobile device by simply tapping the two together.

Correction: An earlier version of this gallery listed the wrong price for the PARTY speakers.
