That's pretty damn cool!Shame it'll likely be well out of many folks' budgets...

Reading the press release at Alpine's site:http://www.alpine-usa.com/html/D2_n_1_n_n.htmlMakes it sound like XM radio, in that you buy the head unit and then purchase a separate interface module to complete the connection. It also sounds like there will be several models designated as "iPod Ready". Anyway, I guess we'll see, but I do believe I've found the new head unit for my Vibe!

You are right, did more readind on the subject.Looks like there will be iPod ready HUs, as well as an addon unit to existing Alpine HUs that will allow iPod control.Just thing, get to see it officially this week (or soon!) and available this summer, yay!
