While promoting their new Bluetooth-based DEH car sound system, Pioneer spokesman Michael Broadhurst touched upon the subject of using iPods with their new sound system. After pointing out that people will need an adapter to run an iPod on the Pioneer DEH system, Broadhurst said that Apple will bring out a Bluetooth adapter that will allow iPod to make a wireless connection, then play directly through the DEH's audio system.

Rumors about Apple and Bluetooth and iPods have been running rampant throughout the internet for years, but if such a thing is true, then this may turn out to be Apple's  first step in combatting the Wi-Fi-enabled Zune.
