Yep! been using Airfoil for quite some time now and the new versions for
Mac and Windows are amazing, allowing total control over Airplay
compatible devices or computers/devices running the Airfoil Speakers
software.

Hi all.
And I also want to tell you about a program that will let you stream
audio from any application to any device on your network, even
non-airplay supported devices. Airfoil from Rogue Amoeba software,
along with the free Airfoil Speakers (included), will do just what
Apple's Airplay technology does, but is more flexible. You can
download a free fully functional trial that inserts noise on
transmissions longer than ten minutes from www.rogueamoeba.com.
Although I do not own a mac, I hear Airfoil and possibly Airfoil
speakers is fully accessible with VoiceOver. The price of Airfoil is
$25, and is a single user, unlimited machine license.
Chat soon.

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.
