As a speaker that would allow you to plug in a USB thumb drive and listen to music through the speaker or through headphones?

Yes, its called a laptop, or a note taker. Or, if you replace the word thumb
drive with the word mp3 player you can add bluetooth speaker to the list.
You're over complicating a situation which already has dozens of fixes for it.
Why do you want to use a thumb drive when you can get mp3 players that are
accessible for very little money?

Agreed with Cody, if you want small and portable, forget the thumb drive and get yourself
an MP3 player. Many can act as a thumb drive anyway, but they will be designed with at
least an audio out for headphones, if not built in bluetooth, and so they will connect easily
to speakers or headphones. There are talking players, or those that one can navigate well
enough without added accessibility. A dedicated speaker would have to have a menu
system to navigate through a thumb drive's contents, which may or may not be
accessible... but we do know that many low cost MP3 players are accessible, so I
recommend sticking with what works.

Actually, hate to break it to you boys (posters two and three), but yes, there is actually such a thing. It's a bluetooth speaker made by PV electronics. You can also plug an SD card into it. I got it as a gift a while back and I love it because it sounds great.
