Similar to BenQ's IMS-100 and Sony's SRS-BTM30, this Bluetooth speaker system boasts A2DP connectivity to enable wireless wide bandwidth stereo over distances of up to 10m."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/hisham-20061024-orange-speaker.jpg" /><br /><br />I can certainly see the use of this - the tangle of wires I can get into sometimes makes me wish we had a real universal wireless cabling option. The Orange system is a step in the right direction, with some thought apparent in the design. But as a first generation device price will be an issue, as it is with many bluetooth accessories, plus the issue of compatibility with the various A2DP implementations. I still like the idea though. 8)
