Default iPod Interface into Symphony Radio

I'm doing my homework on which interface to get to hook my iPod 6gig mini up to the radio.

There are three units in particular that intrest me.

<a href="http://enfigpics.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/PIE_VER_PC_POD.html">PIE iPod Interface</a>

<a href="http://enfigpics.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/audi_ipod.html"> Enfig iPod Interface</a>. Can anyone confirm this but it looks like a Blitzsafe unit with the Belkin iPod Charger

and

<a href="http://www.densionusa.com/x/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=407&Itemid=1 09"> Dension ice&gt;link Plus</a>

I think either the PIE or the Enfig Ipod interface might be a winner to me but I'm wondering if anyone has experience with either of these. The ice&gt;link plus looks interesting, however I've heard that they currently do not display the ID3 tags on the radio.

Also I've never heard of Enfig so I'm wondering if their service is up to par.

Default According to Enfig's website, yes

Precision Interface Electronics, PIE's, NEW Apple iPod Interfaces will allow the factory radio to charge and control your iPod
