iPod HiFiFinally 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.

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.
