Default Very doubtful for a specific ipod interface

Currently B&O products do not support Apple products (although the demographics for each overlap). I did a quick search over on the B&O forum, and there are several posts about adding Apple support, nothing is available. So the chances that this system will be the first to support the ipod are remote.

Yes, there is an Ipod interface coming for the A8. It will have 4 interface connections. It will have the option to play back from ipod, MP3 players and 2 other cable end types. Also in 2007, the CD changer will also play MP3 cds.

Default Thank you for your reply. My dealer told me on Sat. that all 07's would...

have iPod connectivity. The showroom had a large Audi poster about Apple connectivity to audio systems. I am told that Steve Jobs announced this some time ago and targeted Audi as the first brand to have the interface.
