Accessories: Nokia Home Music
Nokia Home Music: It's a radio.
With all the hoopla surrounding recent phone announcements (aka the N97), some new Nokia accessory announcements fell through the cracks. First up is Nokia Home Music, a giant speaker stuffed with a radio. Yum!
Of course, the radio isn’t Home Music’s only function. The device is meant for streaming audio (over your UPnP enabled network, for example) from various sources and through different connections. You could also take the audio and send it over to a home theater system via the optical output or RCA line-out.
Nokia Home Music includes ports for Ethernet, USB, SPDIF optical output, RCA line-out, and 3.5mm headphones, and supports 802.11 b/g + UPnP AV 1.0 and Media Renderer. There’s also a color display that lets you control various functions, and a remote control.
And according to the official specs, the giant speaker is actually a mere 10 watts.
