It's AirPlay compatible. The cheapest I've found elsewhere is here:

Bear in mind that this offer is a part of eBay's daily deal, so this is most likely a 1-day deal only. At this price, I would expect the seller to run out of stock soon.

Bought the conran audio dock when that was on offer for £60.
