CTIA 2012: a look back at our favorite devices
CTIA 2012 is wrapping up and we thought we'd spend a few minutes reminiscing about some of the more interesting devices we had a chance to see for the first time or that were launched here. Unfortunately for us -- and thereby for you, too -- the show lacked the bite we've seen at previous events, in fact it barely registered a nibble. We did catch up with five products we'd like to highlight so follow on after the break for our recap.
SuperTooth Disco2 hands-on
Move over Jambox, there's a new portable audio contender entering the market. The Disco2, shown off at this week's CTIA 2012, is SuperTooth's smaller, more compact sequel to its O.G. 28 watt powerhouse of the same name and a direct threat to the niche market occupied by Jawbone. Housed in a colorful hourglass-shaped design that should please the style-minded, this rechargeable speaker connects over Bluetooth to your device of choice, outputting 16 watts of 360 degree sound through two speakers and a subwoofer. It's set to hit the market mid-month priced at $99, but for consumers that want a bit more of an aural punch, an additional unit can actually be paired up to deliver a fuller stereo effect. Judging from its powerful performance on the noisy showroom floor, however, you'd probably be fine with just the one. Click on below to take a better look at the company's curvy offering.

SuperTooth's literally pint-sized Disco 2 kicks out the jams at CES
French Bluetooth speaker foundry SuperTooth takes pride in its quirky, original designs and this pint-glass shaped Disco 2 is no exception. It'll pump out 16 watts of stereo sound from your Bluetooth A2DP device on its own, or you can pair up two to get "dueling stereo" (it'll do the sorting-out-which-speaker-does-what legwork for you). One of 'em will cost you $99 when it arrives at the end of Q1 this year and because we're far, far too good to you: we've got a presser after the break.
