VW adapter for USB media
I just read that VW is going to offer an adapter to connect USB devices to the standard head units. The adapter is replacing the CD changer and it sounds similar to what the IceLink can do today. However, being universal USB, you could connect any USB media (from a 32MB key to a 80GB external harddisk) or even an iPod which sounds great. The question is: Did they remove the limit of 99 tracks or 5 playlists?
In any case, it does seem to be a real alternative to the Phatbox and since Audi and VW head units are very similar, there might be a chance that this will work for us as well.
Projected price is 195,- Euro, available now for the Eos and R32 and later this year as option in serveral Golf/Touran.
