Airplay sounds cool, but it also reminds me of "beaming" data from a
PDA -- one of the cooler features of Palm handhelds ten years ago that
fizzled. Airplay sounds like a better idea than, say, Bluetooth stereo,
but I could easily see it not getting significant traction. Unlike
boring old el cheapo docks, Airplay doesn't keep your battery charged.
