"HiFi-Link for iPod nano is the easiest way to upgrade the audio capabilities of iPod nano and seamlessly integrate it with anything from a top-of-the-line surround sound system through to a simple boombox or even power speakers."
"We have built the HiFi-Link for iPod nano to do three important things: get the best sound quality through your home stereo; control your nano from up to 50 feet away; and recharge it so it's ready to go when you are," Davis continued. "You'll be amazed at how easy it is to hook up your iPod nano and enjoy fantastic sound quality with total convenience."
