Philips Fidelio Soundsphere with AirPlay

Philips have with the announcement of the Fidelio Soundsphere AirPlay taken their Fidelio range of speakers to the next Apple level by adding support for Apple AirPlay.

The Fidelio Soundsphere is not a traditional speaker dock, like its cousins the Fidelio DS9000 for example or one of its main competitors, the B&W Zeppelin Air. Instead you get two stylish cone shaped speaker units with standout flower protruding tweeters to go along with the docking station itself.

The wi-fi enabled Soundsphere system brings full AirPlay support, although from what i can tell there is no screen displaying sound information (not that you really need it when you have the iPhone/iPad in your hand). As usual the docking station is a nice addition as you can always dock your device for charging.

Expected UK release date for the Philips Fidelio Soundsphere is sometime in May here in the UK, but that has not been confirmed yet. According to a listing on Amazon UK it is temporarily out of stock, but is listed at £715.
