Powered speaker for PDA

[Nubbin]

Not quite Sat Nav, but that's what I want it for. I've recently bought a Glofiish X500 PDA and I want an amplified speaker which plugs in to the 2.5mm headphone socket. I tried a non-amped one, and the X500 doesn't have enough pwer. Anyone know of anything like this? Or maybe a lead to the car stereo (but not with a cassette-stylee adapter). Thanks for any tips.

Nubbin, I've got one sitting around unused from a few years back you're welcome to have.

It's an Arkon powered unit with a speaker loud enough for TVR use, has two USB power outputs (I used it with a Toshiba PDA so have the lead for that) and a 12" (as I recall) swan neck mount.

It's a bit similar to this one.

I'm after something like this as well. Not the mount, as I've got a mount for my PDA, but I can't find one made for the X500. I just want a speaker and small amplifier. Any ideas?
