Turn your iPod dock into a set of Bluetooth speakers

There are literally hundreds, if not thousands of iPod docks on the market. From looking at all of these, one would almost assume that everyone in the world owned an iPod. We all know that’s not the case, and those that don’t have a desire for Apple’s music player sometimes feel a bit left out. Well those of you without iPods can thank intempo for giving you the option to use any iPod speaker dock with a variety of other mobile devices.

If your phone or MP3 player happens to have stereo Bluetooth, you can buy this little BTA-01 adapter and plug it into any iPod dock. The adapter makes your dock believe that an iPod is sitting there, and goes about pumping out your music, none the wiser.

This will mostly affect music phones, which I’ve never really gotten into. I’m on my phone a lot, so I really don’t need anything else taxing my battery life. However, for those that love to rock out with your phone out, you can pick this adapter for $80.
