If you have not heard of Grace Digital before, perhaps it is about time you did so. They happen to be a leader when it comes to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and networked audio solutions, and this time around, they have decided to roll out the Encore (GDI-IRC7500) Stereo Wi-Fi Music System, where it will make an appearance on Amazon.com. The Encore Stereo Wi-Fi Music System boasts of an impressive tweeter and woofer arrangement, where it is more or less guaranteed of delivering clearer vocals as well as deeper bass in comparison to what the industry standard has in store.
Using the Grace Digital Encore, all that a user needs to do would be to hook up to their Wi-Fi network, where they can then gain instant access to just about any preferred internet radio station thanks to one-touch presets. There are more than 50,000 free internet radio stations, podcast, and endless on-demand content for one to choose from, where among them include the likes of NPR, BBC, iHeartRadio, CBS, Pandora, and leading pay services SiriusXM, Rhapsody, and Live365. Not only that, you can opt to save up to a hundred of your favorite stations directly to the Encore Wi-Fi music system, so that you will be able to enjoy quick access to top station and artist choices later on.
Not only that, one will be able to enjoy additional features such as seven separate alarms alongside an adjustable sleep timer and large snooze bar (which is very, very important to those who cannot live without the snooze function), a headphone jack, RCA line out, RCA aux-in, a USB slot so that it can also juice up power hungry smartphones at the end of the day, access flash drive stored tracks, or use the optional Grace USB to Ethernet (RJ45) connector. The asking price for the Grace Digital Encore (GDI-IRC7500) Stereo Wi-Fi Music System stands at $249.99 a pop.

The folks over at Google do seem to be on a constant quest to innovate and change things for the better, and it looks as though they are now working on a new Wi-Fi app which could make life easier when one wants to access wireless hotspots. Apparently, Google has already come up with Android and iOS versions of an app which is smart enough to authenticate and connect to its free hotspots automatically within a Starbucks store, or just about anywhere that they happen to be available. This particular Android app is currently undergoing trials over at its Mountain View headquarters before we presume it is released to the masses for them to enjoy.

Most mobile internet plans have limitations, one of these being coverage. Sure, most developed places are covered by mobile signals, but if you travel frequently to areas with no cell towers, then you might have a problem getting a good signal (or any signal, for that matter.)
Cue the Iridium GO! Mi-Fi that can connect to up to five devices to provide them with internet, anytime and anywhere in the world. Iridium connects with a large network of satellites, allowing you to make calls, send emails, and browse social networking sites once you’re connected.
Iridium GO! is described as a “rugged and portable unit creates the first ever reliable global connection for voice and data communications on up to five smartphones, laptops or tablets” on its product page. The unit itself will cost you a rather hefty $800(USD), aside from the data plan charges you’ll have to deal with upon usage.
