getting started; with wireless speakers?

i live in spain but would like to get decent english talkback radio, preferably as a wakeup alarm, and also with audio in the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen (for those mornings when i'm bobbling about getting ready to go to work). not really interested in rewiring (an apartment) to do it and have wifi (usually get 800kbps).

 

is there an all singing/all dancing solution for this? 

 

thanks all.

If you're after an all-singing, all-dancing solution then the Sonos system is the best we've seen. The BU130 offers units for two rooms of music, but you can add more at extra cost should you desire. It wirelessly streams all your digital music across your wireless network, and crucially for you, comes loaded with some 300 Internet radio stations.

Apparently JBL has released a set of speakers with built in 2.4g connectivity. Check it out!
