Yes...You can use the Bluetooth feature to play audio from your laptop.

Yes and no. Bose has limited their usage, so that you can only play music files (including Pandora, which is built into the App), unless, they are physically connected via the aux, 3.5mm jack. There is a workaround, but I haven't tried it yet, which is to use low latency bluetooth transceivers, one plugged into the speaker, and one to your computer, then you can use them wirelessly for videos/movies. In that case, your wifi won't do you any good. I have tried it with a bluetooth dongle connected to my computer, but the audio lag (audio not synced to the video) is terrible, like most bluetooth connections that aren't low latency, you can connect to the speakers wirelessly, but it isn't worth it to watch video/movies.

You can stream Pandora over both Bluetooth or wifi (through our SoundTouch app) or YouTube through Bluetooth with these speakers.
