Wires? Who needs wires? When you can take advantage of the Apple Airplay standard with a set of wireless speakers like the AQ SmartSpeaker, you can keep the music playing without fumbling with any cables. And now you can do it for almost half price.

The AQ SmartSpeaker is currently on sale on Amazon for $179.95, which is $150.04 off the list price of $329.99. This “totally portable wireless speaker” supports Apple Airplay, so you can easily stream your music from your iPhone, iPod, iPad and iTunes over your existing wireless network. The internal battery lasts about 10 hours in Airplay mode and 20 hours in “Holiday Mode” (line-in), but you can extend that by plugging it into the wall.

This wireless speaker is compatible with the Apple Remote App and it has two channel separated drivers, combining for 24W of tunes. If you choose to buy two, you can separate them into the left and right channels for true stereo sound too. If you have multiple speakers, you can stream your music to all of them at once, filling your home with everything from Nirvana to Nelly Furtado. Or even Gangnam Style, if that’s what you like.

Considering that you’re saving about 45% off the regular price, this is a pretty great deal on the AQ SmartSpeaker with Apple Airplay. You can pick them up individually for $179.95 or, if you buy 2 or more, they’re offering an extra $50.03 off. Click on the “special offers” link on the Amazon page for more info.

The speakers on your iPad and iPhone are not at all bad, but don’t cut it for watching a movie or hearing that special song. What we see here is the Zooka, a new wireless speaker bar. The Zooka is a Bluetooth speaker bar that has been designed to easily fit onto your iPad. It’s said to offer 5x the sound of the in-built speakers on your device, so that is pretty good. And it’s portable as well, that’s even more good.

And no, it’s not just for iDevices. The Zooka can pair up with any other smartphone, tablet or even a laptop.  And there’s no problem if your gadget is so old it doesn’t have Bluetooth, cuz the Zooka features a 3.5mm audio headphone jack input.

Zooka’s rechargeable lithium ion batteries promise 8+ hours of life and are made of medical grade silicone; durable and comfortable to hold.   But designer Patrick Triato and NEW, a design studio in Portland Oregon need your help at the moment. The Zooka is a Kickstarter project and they need to raise $25,000 to start the device’s production. Head here to show your support and know more about Zooka to pre-order a unit for about $90.

Be sure to check out the gallery and the video.

One of the newer products sounds like it could be perfect for people who like to sing in the shower. Oh yes, it will never give you up or let you down.

The MP3 Wireless Speaker Fog Free Shower Mirror carries quite the descriptive model name, don’t you think? This shower mirror will happily sit inside of your bathroom as you take an extra steamy shower, but the mirror itself will not get fogged up like most other mirrors. That’ll help with your shaving and hair styling.

But that’s not really enough, right? Well, the this is also a wireless speaker for your MP3 player. The mirror, from what I can tell, acts as the wireless speakers for pumping your tunes. The base station for your MP3 player, on the other hand, can be in another room altogether, streaming your playlist from up to 100 feet away. This way, you don’t have to worry about your iPod getting water damage.

This music-playing shower mirror lists at $70.
