Hi!

Apologies for those of you who will find this old hack.

An article appeared in one of our local newspapers yesterday, the article 
discussed Apple's Airplay facilities available through IOS devices and iTunes 
running on Mac or Windows PC's, Airplay allows the user to stream audio/video 
from say an iPad to a compatible device such as an Apple TV, Airport express 
and now! a whole new range of surround-sound receivers and similar devices from 
Pioneer.

Other company's such as Denon and JBL have signed up with Apple to use the 
Airplay technology so we're going to see some exciting products in the not to 
distant future I'm sure.

Pioneer have just released 2 new surround-sound receivers equipped with Airplay 
functionality, the first model retails for $1099.00 Australian which isn't a 
bad price for a surround-sound receiver though the next question will be how 
accessible the receiver is?

I take heart here because the receiver can be controlled by an iPad app 
according to the article so those without vision are in with a good chance of 
being able to control the receiver.

I've been saving for a new surround-sound receiver for quite some time and I've 
had my eye on one of the Denon receivers and why? Because I know it to be fully 
accessible, every function and setting can be controlled through a HTML 
interface and I'll leave that for a different thread on a different list 
<smile> though now I know Denon to have signed up with Apple to use the Airplay 
technology? Well I don't mind waiting to see what sort of product Denon will 
release.
