You'll be fine. The only thing you don't want to do is connect speakers to it that need to derive their power from the Book Port. Otherwise, you'll drain the batteries quick. However, since the speakers you're speaking of were meant to be used with the computer, then they probably have their own power supply, so you should be in good shape.

I would like to use these speakers with my book port but I thought I had better check. I could not find anything in the book port papers that warned me not to use certain speakers. I do not want to blow up my little buddy! John
