What is the difference between them? I know the iPod/USB does not bother with the CD-Changer. Any thoughts? My new baby arrived today and I may wait until the new iPod/USB kit is available and install that, any thoughts? Thanks!!

I would at least wait and see if it will even be available. Then if it is you can compare the prices for install plus read everyone's reviews of the new system. Obviously waiting is going to be a pain, but in the long run it's probably going to be the better choice.
Edit: I just read the article that JSpira posted and it appears as though the new interface wont be a retrofit option so you may have to go with the iPod connection.
