So you have an iPod and are looking to integrate it with your MINI. You've got the AUX input or the Blitzsafe adapter and now you just need to figure out how to mount the iPod in the MINI. Then you turn the TV on and see the Pods Unite VW commercial. You get depressed. You begin to think that the marketing people at MINI were asleep at the wheel, missed a great opportunity and worst of all caused you to miss out on total iPod integration. Well think again – the MINI and the iPod are now able to unite in the same mutual bliss that was once soley reserved for the Beetle. Enter The Belkin TuneDok Car Holder for iPod:

Belkin has posted information about a new car holder called the TuneDok. This is the same iPod holder as being sold in the VW iPod connectivity kit for the
'Pods Unite' promotion. The TuneDok features 'AirGrip'
technology (suction cup) for secure placement, a large
and small rubber base plus adapter cup for exact fit
in a cup holder, cable management system, and comes
with a 3 year warranty. The TuneDok fits all iPod
models and retails for $29.99, but is not yet
available. No anticipated shipping date has been
announced. (ipodlounge.com)

Best of all you can one-up the Beetle and it's lowly cassette tape adapter with the MINI AUX input! You can read more about it here According to the ipodlounge.com it should ship in the middle of September.

[update] for some reason it's been removed from Belkin's website entirely. Perhaps the release has been pushed back a bit?
