摘要： Embodiments of the present invention provide an integrated receiver and power adapter (10). The adapter (10) generally includes a coupling element (12) operable to couple with a power source (S), a receiver (14) operable to wirelessly receive information, a housing (16) operable to house the receiver (14), and a connection element (18) operable to couple with an electronic device (D). Coupling of the connection element (18) with the electronic device (D) enables the adapter (10) to provide power and/or received information to the electronic device (D). Such a configuration enables the electronic device (D) to be provided with power and information without requiring the use of a plurality of cables or numerous external housings.
