iHome iW1

iHome recently updated the page for their new rechargeable AirPlay enabled speaker dubbed the iW1.

iHome’s iW1 features AirPlay which lets you stream digital lossless audio over Wi-Fi from iTunes. Control is via a backlit capacitive touch panel. You can have multi-room ability with multiple units and portability thanks to a built-in rechargeable li-ion battery and carrying case.

The iW1 also features iHome’s Bongiovi Acoustics DPS studio series speakers and Class-D amp, iPhone/iPod docking and it works with iHome+apps for easy network setup, device control and firmware updates.

Pricing is $299 US when it hits retailers early 2011.

    Looks like it’ll cost $299, and they won’t be out in time for Christmas.

        J.M. you must be kidding. This thing can be had for $200 in Europe and in the US.

        It was listed as $499 on the website you gave. What’s the rip off in Australia?
