Hi,

AbFab indeed.

Will AirPlay be available for older Streamium products, like the MCI730? That would be great.

Denon offers a software upgrade that supports AirPlay for existing products. I hope Philips will do so too !

Thanks, regards,

Citro

At the moment Airplay is not supported by any of our streamium models. As are always looking for ways to improve our products I have passed your suggestion forward to our development team as I think it is a great idea!

If you have any product wishes we welcome you to post your suggestions in our Share your wish list & insights section of our forum.

Kind regards,

I have been struggling with this app for 6 weeks now and I never know what if anything I am going to get from the radio.
I do believe a schoolboy programmer could make a better job of this than philips.Upgrading my i-phone today to ios5 has finally finished any usability with this app so I guess the docking ststion goes on E-Bay and the app gets deleted and Philips never ever sees me or my cash again.
Shame on you Philips.

Hi Cassandra,

Thanks for forwarding this idea. It would be really great indeed.

The former Philips owned brand Marantz does some nice AirPlay integration; so does Denon.

It's the way to go

Best regards,

Well it would be nice if that were possible but there is no indication on the philips website that the Fidelio 3020 has any facility for updating.
I think I need to update my docking station to one made by a different manufacturer.

yes in philips website, it s not specified there s any upgrade option. what information i got from the consumer care representative locally is that for all docking stations, it's not expected to hv such upgrade...

the internet radio works ok for me... i m in hong kong, connected to the UK BBC channel using AS351... it seems nice (my first time using that...)
