I bought this for my girls so they can play whatever, where ever.

I was convinced after seeing it in action after gig we did. Ritchie and Kristen pulled up the most obscure songs I could think of from their iPhone controller.

  1. Room-filling, ear-impressing sound

    with 5 speakers powered by 5 dedicated digital amps.

  2. Internet connected for unlimited music

    • Over 25,000 free Internet radio stations
    • Your entire iTunes® library (not just what fits on your iPod®)
    • Millions of songs and stations streaming direct from the Internet

  1. Control with your iPhone or iPod touch

    • Free Sonos Controller for iPhone™ app is a download away
    • Pick a room, find a song and touch play from anywhere
    • Keep your iPhone in your pocket, not stuck in a dock
    • Get a text or a call and the music won’t stop

  2. Simple to set up anywhere you want music

    Just plug in the S5* and rock out.

  3. Add more S5s without adding wires

    Play the same song in every room or different songs in different rooms.

    *To connect to the world of music on the Internet, one ZonePlayer or ZoneBridge™ (sold separately) must be wired to your broadband router. All the rest work wirelessly.

You can setup folder pairs to copy the contents of on folder to another.
An example would be to setup your 'My Documents' folder, and copy it to a folder on an external drive.

Not only do I use it to copy important files to my DropBox folder, I use the windows scheduler to automatically run the software and copy all folder pairs at midnight.

Use this path as a guide to run All folder pairs in scheduler.
"C:\Documents and Settings\[WINDOWS USER]\Local Settings\Application Data\SyncToy\SyncToy.exe" -R

I've seen Leo Laportes Tech podcasts go through the roof in the past 2 years. For example, MacBreak Weekly was on my weekly audio podcast list, and now, I download and can watch the video podcast version on my iPhone, MacbookPro or on my televison via my Apple TV.

I fear my Foxtel subscription is heading for a severe cut back in the coming months.
