Scion will now offer standard fully-integrated iPod connectivity and control across the product line for 2008.
Apple iPod connectivity is standard across the Scion lineup for 2008. Scion's standard 160-watt maximum output Pioneer AM/FM/CD audio system features a head unit with iPod control. This head unit integrates track, artist and album information from the iPod into a one-line display on the head unit's screen. Connectivity is achieved by simply plugging the iPod into a port via a connector cable, providing outstanding sound quality through the car's stereo system and constant power to the iPod. Music is controlled through the head unit and steering wheel audio controls.
I've had full iPod control for a couple years now (via 3rd party add-on deck and interface from Alpine) and I must say it rocks! This is so much more than simply running your iPod through an FM transmitter, or even connecting directly to the stereo via an aux port. This is full control from the deck, with full ID tag display (artist, album, track name, etc.) and full browing of playlists and catalog.
More and more auto makers are jumping on the iPod bandwagon: http://www.apple.com/ipod/carintegration.html
