    The headphone jack for the FZ is in a great place for headphones but a poor location for speaker output. It is up front and right in the way of my mouse. I have a cheap set of Logitech PC speakers that I would like to use, but the output cable gets in the way. Does anyone know of a reasonable USB - Speaker cable adaptor that would plug into my USB multi-port and then allow me to plug in my external speakers?

    I think THIS is what I want. Right?

    Griffin iMic (the new ones) -- Good sound, cheap, sturdy (but have a small cable)
    Dropped them countless no. of times but still work flawlessly....!!

    Do not go for those USB adapters....I bought one and it melted when I just once connected it with my sony surround system.. :D
