Airphones is the next-generation solution to wireless headphones. A new app for the iPhone and iPod Touch lets you stream any audio from your computer over a wi-fi connection. The app itself is fairly straight forward; open it up and sound starts streaming over. A companion app running on your Mac or PC shows up as a sound device which then sends your audio over WiFi to the AirPhones iPhone app.

AirPhones, from developers Smashart, costs $5, but it largely eliminates the need for pricey wireless headphones After purchasing and installing the app, you have to download a free server application that runs on your Mac desktop (this server component is currently only available Intel Macs). Your iPhone and your Mac need to be connected to the same wireless network, and there is a slight but of latency — somewhere around a quarter of a second audio delay between your Mac and your iPhone.

AirPhones is available now for $5 in the App Store [App Store]. But remember that AirPhones does not have an iTunes controller built in. It’s set up to simply stream audio from your computer.
