You won't read much about it on Engadget, but this electronic audio device has almost zero buffering time. Best of all, it's only a fraction of the price of an iPad.

Here are some of the audio stories we've produced over the last 24 hours.

KUT's Erika Aguilar reports on body scanners at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. We don't have 'em yet, but most Texas airports do. And we'll be getting them soon.
