MWSF: Griffin FireWave

By Scott McNulty

If they keep up with this rate of product releases Griffin Technology is going to need a conference devoted only to their stuff.

The newest addition to the Griffin Technology stable (the
BlueTrip is so 5 minutes ago) is the
FireWave which promises to bring surround sound capabilities to any FireWire equipped Mac.

The FireWave supports 5.1 surround sound with Dolby Digital™ processors built into this smart little product. It is light enough to tote with you so you can have surround sound anywhere, and it draws its power for the FireWire port so no need to an annoying power cable.

But wait, I'm not giving up my only FireWire port for this, I need my iPod!  Worry not, the
FireWave has an extra FireWire port on it so it can act as a hub to chain another FireWire device to it.

It'll set you back $99.99, but it will pay you back in surround sound goodness.
