Logitech is getting more and more serious when it comes to tablet accessories, launching product after product, and the latest items are the Wireless Headset and Wireless Boombox for iPad, both using Bluetooth technology. While Logitech mentions the iPad in the product name, it’s actually a marketing gimmick, as both peripherals are compatible with iPad/iPad 2, iPhone (3G or later), iPod Touch (2nd gen or later) and tablets, smartphones, music players and other audio sources with Bluetooth A2DP support or 3.5 mm out (Boombox only).
The Logitech Wireless Headset for iPad also supports FaceTime calls thanks to an included microphone. Supported devices are iPad 2, iPhone 4 and iPod touch (4th generation), while voice calls can be made with all iPhone generations.
Both Logitech tablet accessories can get music streams from up to 33 feet (~10 meters) away and feature rechargeable internal batteries that will last you up to 6 hours, so you won’t have to remind yourself to buy batteries. as with many speakers for tablets, Logitech doesn’t rate the power output of the Wireless Boombox for iPad, but we know it should pack plenty of punch thanks to 2 x 3” laser-tuned neodymium drivers, 2 x ½” neodymium tweeters and 4 x 2” passive radiators. That’s 8 speakers, if you want to impress your friends.

Both Logitech iPad accessories should be available in October for $70 (Headset) and $180 (Boombox). They’re not cheap, but considering the high quality standard offered by Logitech I can forgive them.
