When Bluetooth was first introduced, it was meant
to be a universal wireless replacement of cables for low level computer
peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and printers. In addition,
Bluetooth technology brought about high quality wireless headsets
that can be used with any Bluetooth enabled cell phone without the
need of adapters. Lately, Bluetooth has found a new cable to replace
audio cables. It started with the Bluetake i-Phono wireless headphones.
Now, Bluetake brings you the Hi-PHONO Bluetooth Hi-Fi Audio Station
Kit.
