The photo to the right depicts a large rectangular speaker grill with an integrated dock for the iPod. Details about the new Bose unit has yet to be released.</i>"<br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/boselarge.jpg" /> <br /><br />I'm sure it will be expensive. :cry: <br /><br />No word on what iPods are supported, but I'll bet it will only work with the iPod mini and the 4g iPods.

You're right, it probably will be expensive, but I love the way it looks. :-)

4G and 3G have the same ports, right?

4G and 3G have the same ports, right?Yes, but the question is will Bose offer the "adapter" to let the 3G iPods sit on the dock. The new docks come with 3 plastic adapters. One for the mini, one for the 20gig and one for the 40 gig. I'm wondering if they will do something similar with this to drive sales. I personally don't care because I have a 4G iPod now, but those with 3G might feel differently.
