Bose SoundDock + AirportExpress - possible?

[madeinstein]

I've got Bose SoundDock and it doesn't have any connections apart from the ipod dock..

Is there something that I could plug in there so I could stream music via AirportExpress from AppleTV?

Amazing.. aparently there is a cable that you can buy in US from cablejive

or it's possible to build it yourself.. wow.. here's a guide

I wonder if it's possible to buy a cable like that in US.. or female IPod Dock connector

There might be an easier way to do it

Griffin dock adapter + a bit of 3.5mm stereo cable. Cool.

I didn't think you could stream to airport express from apple tv...

The latest software update gave that functionality. I've not tried it yet but it does mean the AppleTV can be used as a mini music server.
