Belkin dongle connects your stereo to your iPhone through Bluetooth

Belkin dongle connects your stereo to your iPhone through BluetoothBelkin’s latest dongle — the tiny little Bluetooth Music Receiver — is a cute little gadget: it streams music from your iPhone or iPod Touch to any stereo thanks to the magic of A2DP.

It’s simplicity itself. All you do is plug the glowing, cycloptic dongle into your stereo, either through the 3.5mm headphone jack or using your stereo’s RCA cables. Once that’s done, you pair it with your iPhone, iPod Touch, or other A2DP-compatible PMP, and you’re good to stream music to your stereo from up to 33 feet away whenever you want. It’ll even remember six different devices.

For $50, it’s not a bad buy, although I can’t imagine I’ll take the plunge: 33 feet isn’t very far, and I figure Apple has got to get around to letting me stream my iPhone’s music to my Airport Express network through WiFi one of these days.
