Bose has introduced its first AirPlay-enabled wireless speaker, the SoundLink Air. Like many other wireless speakers featuring AirPlay, the SoundLink Air plays music streamed wirelessly from iOS devices like the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. The speaker can be controlled using an included infrared remote control, and can play music from other devices via the Aux In port. Bose has also announced the sequel to the SoundLink Bluetooth mobile speaker — pictured below — allowing users to stream music from any mobile device featuring Bluetooth. The company says that the new speaker features "improved full-range audio," yet the dimensions remain the same as its predecessor.
