Pea Speaker concept makes multi-room audio easy

Look, we never said we meant multi-channel, multi-room audio, nor did we imply that these were the real deal, but the Pea Speaker concept would make it mighty easy to fill up to seven (tiny) rooms with audio sans wires. In theory, Lu Le's peas-in-a-pod-like creation would enable each speaker to play back audio that was streamed over Bluetooth, though just one would posses a global volume control. Oh, and unless these spheres are much heavier than they look, we can imagine your kids having an absolute field day.

Crikes that's hilarious but also genius. Can you imagine just taking the speaker wherever you want? It looks cool enough for people to buy I say.

Bluetooth? Don't wander far with those peas. Cute idea though.

Wiimotes use bluetooth and mine still work on the second floor of my house, and the Wii is in my basement. Bluetooth is good up to 100ft with no obstructions, and even with obstructions (two floor and some walls in my case) it's pretty good.
