Good point, plus I'd have to buy/find a cig-lighter adapter for the
iPod.
I've been reading about people trying to connect the little portable
hard-drives
to the HU's USB port, but it seems pretty problematic. 'Twould be
cool though,
because I could fit all my music on one drive (it might almost fit on
a 16GB
thumb, but you advise against one so large) and it would eliminate the
damage-hazard problem you mentioned.
Thanks for helping me think out loud on this conundrum ...
