And despite the product's crude, toddler-friendly design, the program actually works well to introduce the basic concept of piano fingering without...
...Speaker wires are up there with cockroaches in the ranks of annoying household nuisances. So music lovers listened closely when tech firm Avega announced a new technology that allows for wireless speakers. The Australian company says a major speaker manufacturer will soon ship wireless speakers that consumers will be able to set up around the house, connected through the Internet to their music source.
