Harman Kardon's iPod Accessory : Ipod Bridge, Same 'ole Crap

This is the iPod Bridge made by iPod accessory extraordinaire, Harman Kardon. It is really the same as every other home audio dock controller out there but worse, because it limits you to compatibility with only Harman Kardon audio equipment. "The Bridge" allows you to use your existing Harman Kardon remote—they must assume everyone buys their overpriced audio equipment—to control the iPod from across the room. It can display the iPod GUI on the receiver display or on the television screen itself. Woohoo! The unit is compatible with Harman Kardon's AVR 140, 240, 340 and 740 receivers. It will set you back 40 bones, which is pretty reasonable considering brand name markup. –
