Apple recently teased about AirPlay support on third-party products, and it looks like iHome might be answering the call first.

iHome, one of the biggest players when it comes to third-party speaker products for Apple, has already published a teaser page on its website for this speaker dock seen above. It has the simple name, iHome AirPlay, and all we know is that the wireless and portable speaker system should be released by the holiday season. A few more details would have been nice, but at least the ball is rolling.

In case you missed it at the Apple music-related press event on Wednesday, AirPlay (a revision of AirTunes) will allow users to stream music and video between Apple TV and other portable devices (iPad, iPhone, etc.) wirelessly anywhere in the home.
