The first purely AirPlay connected speaker I’ve tested is iHome’s under $200 CAD [...]
I just got my iPhone 5 a few days ago and I’m already hooked. It makes my iPhone 4S look like a piker, and that’s no small feat. The iPhone 5 is 7.6 mm thin, 123 mm high, 58.6 mm wide and weighs just 112 grams. According to Apple, that’s 18 percent thinner and 20 [...]
