Samsung already loosed a 3-channel Bluetooth speaker earlier this year, but apparently, one just isn’t enough. The company has now introduced its YA-SBR510 over in South Korea, which streams audio from BT-enabled players and includes a 3.5-millimeter auxiliary jack for hooking up just about everything else. A tad pricey at €150 ($222), but it’s a total bargain should it come bundled with that oh-so-furry rug. Sammy, care to comment?

Samsung’s YA-BS900 won’t deliver any jams in 5.1, but it most certainly is “Hyper-Directional,” for whatever that’s worth. The interestingly designed speaker touts Bluetooth technology, claims to be “3-channel” in nature and possesses the innate ability to play back tunes streamed in with your BT-enabled cellphone or DAP. Furthermore, the unit will take Ozzy down a notch if it notices that a Bluetooth phone is answered, but we’re not told what other inputs (you know, like a totally convenient 3.5-millimeter jack) are included. Per usual, price / availability remain a mystery, but those tidbits can’t hide for too much longer.

If Sony Ericsson was the name for an embarrassing fungal wart then you’d be reaching for a bucket right about now. However, given that SE makes consumer electronics you’re actually looking at their new MBS-100 Bluetooth speaker. The crater-pocked sphere features A2DP stereo audio and a rechargeable 5-hour battery for delicious portability. Unfortunately, SE tells us that it “looks as good as it sounds” which doesn’t make us too hopeful on the acoustic front. They’ve also released a 25-hour, HCB-105 Bluetooth car Speakerphone kit. Sure, it looks a bit staid but at least it won’t scare the children. No prices given, but the MBS-100 will drop in Q4 while the HCB-105 arrives in Q1.
