I got to start by saying that a friend set me this article on the new Sonos wireless system and knew this was a winner right from the start. This is such a unique system for the LuxeElectronics lover in us all. The Sonos wireless system has to be great for entertaining, especially with the ability to play different music in each room of the house. Sonos, I sure could use this system in my new house

The Sonos portable, wireless music player (www.sonos.com) lets people listen to their music in style and gear up for the ultimate in luxury entertaining with the ultimate in digital music. With its sleek design and wireless abilities, Sonos is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. It is a perfect companion for entertaining (indoors AND out) this summer. The one thing every party has to have is music and Sonos provides that in a simple, sleek way.

So, what is Sonos?

Sonos is a portable, wireless system that comes with a handheld controller to manipulate your music from anywhere inside or outside of your home –and in multiple rooms simultaneously (so you can have different music playing out at the pool, inside in the kitchen and upstairs in guests’ rooms ALL AT THE SAME TIME!). And you can set an alarm to start/stop and change up the music whenever you like (so if you’re short on time and scurrying around trying to get ready before your guests arrive, the Sonos will start the music for you). With a wireless Sonos Controller, music lovers have plug-and-play access to millions of songs — including songs from their personal music services (Rhapsody, Napster, etc.), Internet radio and their personal music collections. Friends can come over and bring their iPods and play them right from the system as well.

Given the proliferation of both wireless networks and digital music in the home, this product really falls into the “cool and unique” category.

They have finally put the Bedouin Bedroom into production. For the nomad in all of us, the Bedouin Bedroom is a spare room, a tent, an inflatable bed, and a raft. Currently in the design phase, this inflatable, plug-in tent will come equipped with a dock for your iPod, electrical outlets, a mini-projection screen that doubles as a clothes rack, LED lights, a fan, a Mylar mirror, and even a pair of bedside tables. A modern adaptation of the ancient tent shelters used by Arab nomads for centuries, the Bedouin Bedroom’s compact shape combined with its lightweight yet durable fabric means that the structure is highly efficient in maximizing strength while also providing longevity and low maintenance demanded by modern users. Also, its state-of-the-art design and fabric allows for simple assembly as well as complete versatility. An interior and exterior version of the Bedouin Bedroom is in the works, with the outdoor version taking the place of a tent with an electricity adapter and a shell that can withstand wind and elements.

It seems that both the Costa del Sol and the Costa Blanca have a longstanding tug-of-war going when it comes to tourist numbers. Each one claims, at various times, to have drawn a larger number of visitors to its region - The Costa Blanca recently published its numbers from July and August last summer, placing the number of visitors to the area at 600,000 during this two month period. That beat the Costa del Sol, at least for that part of the year. Arguably, the Costa del Sol's tourist trade burgeons with or without a signature work of architecture. After all, the Costa del Sol already has the luxurious resort town of Marbella, which attracts the most elite and wealthiest of tourists from Spain and beyond. (Of course, the average tourist is welcome too, as long as he or she can spare the extra cash.) Thanks to a massive capital project spearheaded by a former Marbella mayor, the city received a major landscaping overhaul which added a more breathtaking element to its already gorgeous terrain.

For the first time in more than 40 years, Norwegian Cruise Line is going to deploy one of its ships in Europe for the whole year round. The 2,400-passenger Norwegian Jade will remain in Europe until the spring of 2010 - a change from the original plans to sail back to the US in November 2008. Instead she will follow new itineraries from Barcelona, including 12-day eastern Mediterranean sailings, 9-day Canary Islands and Morocco voyages and a 14-day Mediterranean cruise.

Milan has long been the capital of fashion, and the Park Hyatt Milan is certainly in keeping with the refined style and sophisticated elegance that characterises the city. The first Hyatt accommodation to be built in Italy, the hotel has been constructed around a beautiful historical palazzo dating back to 1870, and its interiors use the elegant history of the building to combine a sense of contemporary, clean design with its original material. In line with the extravagance of Milan, this glamorous Park Hyatt has created a number of indulgent packages, from VIP pampering for guests’ VID (very important dogs) to the inclusion of Porsche rental with bookings in either the Presidential Suite or Diplomatic Suite.
