While we are on this another issue is if you assign a steering wheel button to Jump to Next Entertainment source it will go to all except Aux (mine was retrofitted)

Does an iPod have (or can you get) a remote control for it? That could be a pretty good option - just have the remote sitting on the center console or something.
Also, she could just burn mp3 discs that have all of her iPod tunes, and then you get to see the title/artist info on the nav screen and such. And 1 disc will
hold quite a few songs (maybe 150 or so?)

No pain at all! But hmmm, I'm not sure I've ever heard of an atrac cd. The CDs I have burned and play
in the car are simply data CDs with mp3 files on them. In other words, I just burn a CD like I would
if I was backing up my hard drive, just that each and every file is an mp3. I also tried putting other format
files on the data cd, and what happens is the cd still loads and plays, but ONLY the mp3 files are shown
(any other type of file just seems to be completely ignored, as if it weren't on the disc at all).
