Subject: Re: bluetooth speaker with the mac

Hello,
After doing some researching, I have found that this is a problem that 
apparently affects Bose specifically. According to the forum topic on their 
website, one needs to update some sort of driver in order to make this work. 
Unfortunately, the update software is completely inaccessible so looks like I 
will be needing to ask someone sighted to assist me with it. That is quite a 
lot of trouble and hassle considering how expensive this speaker was.
