Outdoor Tech has launched the ADAPT ($40), a clip-on Bluetooth receiver that allows iOS devices and the latest iPod nanos to wirelessly stream audio to any pair of headphones or speakers. The device has a standard 3.5mm audio port, and receives Bluetooth audio from distances of up to 30 feet away. ADAPT also comes with playback controls and a built-in mic for calls. ADAPT promises nine hours of talking and listening time from its rechargeable battery, which is refueled with an included Micro-USB charger. It is available now, in black, pink, and blue.

Your description “converting the wired output from any Apple device into a 30-foot wireless streaming signal” is not correct, me thinks!
I think this device connects to your wired headphones, making them bluetooth compatible. It is a bluetooth receiver not a transmitter. Now you and your headphones with ADAPT attached to them can be 30 feet from the mobile device which has to have Bluetooth already built into it.
