JBL’s Grip Is the Tallboy of Portable Bluetooth Speakers

I’ve seen a lot of influences for wireless audio products (single-use pill packaging and cassette tapes, for example), but JBL’s Grip is a first. According to JBL, the Grip, a new smallish Bluetooth speaker announced at IFA 2025 that focuses on portability, is modeled after the proportions of a seltzer can. To be honest, my first thought was a tallboy, but maybe that says more about me than it does JBL. No matter what you think of when you see the Grip, it sounds like a solid Bluetooth speaker

Millions of people worldwide have reason to be thankful that Swedish engineer Rune Elmqvist decided not to practice medicine. Although qualified as a doctor, he chose to invent medical equipment instead. In 1949, while working at Elema-Schonander (later Siemens-Elema), in Stockholm, he applied for a patent for the Mingograph, the first inkjet printer. Its movable nozzle deposited an electrostatically controlled jet of ink droplets on a spool of paper. Rune Elmqvist qualified to be a physician,

How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I.
