Argh... Apple does it again! doh.gif They launched a new toy called the IPod Hi-Fi. Looks simple and yet so stylish. Anyone with any idea how much will it cost and roughly when will it arrive on our shores?

WOW! USD349 ain't cheap. It's gonna costs at least RM1300 here. At that price, I can buy a reasonably good hifi. Just curious though. Apple mentioned that the IPod Hi-Fi can be carried around powered by batteries. However, how is the IPod gonna hold itself to place. Won't it like drop out? blink.gif

Will prefer to actually look at it first before deciding. Need to know the build and sound quality.

I know it won't blast people away, but at least Apple finally created something for people to listen to their IPod music using a speaker dock system instead of having to rely on other brands like Bose, Klipsh, etc... Besides, not many hifi system out there provide support for IPod for the time being.

We can only judge its look for now. As for performance, just like what kcnyc said, let's wait for it to reach our shores.

Hmm...really long article. Read it before making your purchase. smile.gif

I'm suprised that it actually charges the IPod even on batteries. Why would I sacrifice battery power to bring power to the IPod. A bit the weird right?

I'm not saying that I'll carry on the streets mah. Hehe... But just curious on the battery thingy. It's sometimes good to learn and know.
