    I need some help. I have a HDTV/monitor combo and want to improve on the built in speakers. Would this or 2.1 speakers be better? I mostly use the speakers for TV/DVD and use headphones for PC related stuff and music. Can anyone help me?

    But they are OOS already :(

    I went ahead and ordered a pair before they went OOS.

    In retrospect I probably should have just gone with some 2.1 speakers as these do not have a toslink connection to allow me to connect them to my HDTV. I can still connect them through the headphone jack though and use the Matrix feature to simulate surround sound. I am unsure, but I believe my M1330 will support surround sound though. But if not I can always use the Matrix feature again. At this price you really cannot complain--and they are bound to better than my monitors built in speakers!

    Wow, that's cool. Like a radio that can the music on your computer over WiFi. It would be really if you had Rhapsody I bet. You play practically any song you want!

    You know I am not exactly a Apple fanboy, but they to use Lala to make a device like this it would be pretty awesome!
