Default New iPod Solution anyone heard of it????

A company in SoCal called Pac Audio has one. They seem to be a company that makes audio interfaces for OEM head units...They have one listed for the Lexus/Toyota...I looked at the specs and it shows FULL integration, including search by artist, album, song, and playlist...and it has another input as well and it says it works WITH factory Sat radio....unlike the Lexus interface. It looks like its a bit better implemented than the Vaistech, is about $75 cheaper....Here is the link...

http://www.pac-audio.com/products/pr...%20Integration

Its the LAST one on the page....there is another one for other Toyota cars in the middle....They have the instructions available as well so you can see how it connects and operates....looks like the best integration that I have seen so far. Thoughts? I was just about to order the Vaistech, but I may look into this one first...and the company is near me so I may see if I can pick one up and if I dont like it return it...or at least get a demo before I buy....

Looks like you lose the 18 sat presets you have now (sat1/sat2/sat3)... you just have "sat" at that point (and I guess you'd have 6 presets once that's selected but seems no way to cycle sat1/sat2/sat3)... still a lot better than losing sat entirely like with the lexus ipod interface though
