If you go the notebook computer route, you'll likely need a small inverter & run off your vehicle battery. Most of the speaker set ups for notebooks will have a small sub woofer that needs an extra power supply for the oomph. The inverter will also take care of the dead notebook battery issue.

Walmart sells a very small portable speaker that simply plugs into your ipod headphone jack, the speaker is charged by usb and will last a few hours before needing another charge. It's a lot better than I would have thought and it can fit in your pocket. I think it's like $15.

I have gone camping with this unit, puts out good sound. I believe the new one has an ipod port on it now too.
