One of the charms of an iPod is its pleasing feel in your hand – with all its browsing features at your fingertips. However, this personal handiness is lost when you want to enjoy the music via your high quality HiFi system – but all that is about to change, thanks to a new type of docking station: the IS301.

It lets you keep your iPod, and all of its browsing features, in your hands. It does this via a small extension module (Hand set) that plugs into your iPod and sends audio information via Bluetooth (A2DP) to a receiver unit connected to your HiFi system.

Charging the iPod, enjoying all videos and connecting via USB to iTunes is possible while it is docked in a separate base unit, which can sit on a shelf or be mounted on a wall. On the RX unit you have audio and video outputs and even RS232. It’s all in your own hands.
