Gift Guide: Sonos

Sonos with iPod/iPhone app (Domestic God/Goddess, Under $500)

Sonos, the multi-room wireless music system that lets you stream music from the Web and your PC, can now be controlled with that device we all know and love: the iPhone (and iPod Touch). The new iPhone app (free for any Sonos user) is big news for several reasons. First, the touch-based interface is a huge improvement over Sonos' old scroll-wheel controller -- managing music in multiple rooms and queueing up playlists culled from the Web and your home library is simply more enjoyable on the iPhone. Second, it's cheaper. Whereas getting started with Sonos in the past would run you close to $1000, the new app lets you get started with multi-room music for under $500. Feels great to remove one more unnecessary remote from our homes.
