Finally we know what Apple has up its sleeves. Today, Apple announced the iPod Hi-Fi: a home stereo system with an iPod dock (for every iPod) on the top. It comes with a Universal Dock connector and integrated handles for easy portability at a weight of 14.5 pounds. The dock connector also acts a way to charge your iPod. It features three speaker cones custom designed to provide balanced sound with a 130 mm woofer. All I know is, it's about time!! The Tone Control option is a nice feature. It lets you choose settings like “Normal,” “Treble Boost,” or “Bass Boost” to produce the kinds of tones you want to hear. With it, you'll get: -iPod Hi-Fi and removable grille -Apple Remote -10 iPod Universal Dock Adapters -AC power cord -Product documentation and user guide Buy the iPod Hi-Fi now for $349 at the Apple Store. For more info, read PCMag Audio Analyst Mike Kobrin's report on the iPod Hi-Fi.

Just to be clear, this will not work with ANY iPod - only with those that use the dock connector. The 1G and 2G iPods connected via a Firewire port, not the dock connector.
