2008-11-10 00:45:00| Engadget

According to the posted user's guide in the FCC, the unit can play nice with dock-connecting iPods, stream WiFi radio stations and play back music from any other DAP via the 3.5-millimeter auxiliary jack. You'll also find a 128 x 64 resolution FSTN graphics display, S-Video / composite video outputs, an Ethernet jack and a total of four drivers to kick out the jams. An obligatory remote is also bundled in, though there's obviously no indication of a price tag or release date in those absolutely riveting FCC documents.ASUS AIR3 iPod speaker system / internet radio hits the FCC originally appeared on Engadget on Sun, 09 Nov 2008 18:45:00 EST.
