14 DAY TRIAL // Logitech will start selling a new speaker next month, one with a fairly self-explanatory name: Logitech UE Air Speaker with AirPlay technology.
Then again, it's only self-explanatory for those who know what AirPlay is.
For those who don't, the technology lets uncompressed audio streams play right off the iTunes library that any iPod, iPhone and iPad can use.
All it takes is for the speaker and the AirPlay source to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network and everything is set.
"There's a new breed of music fans whose iPad and iPhone devices are at the center of their listening activities," said Rory Dooley, senior vice president of music at Logitech.
"We created the Logitech UE Air Speaker to give those people a great audio experience that combines effortless streaming with fantastic sound. With its stylish, modern design, easy setup and excellent sound, the Logitech UE Air Speaker looks and sounds phenomenal in any room in the house."
Sales will start in April in the US, for $499.99, or 300 Euro. The Logitech UE Air app will have to be downloaded manually (free of charge).
