Nice!

I hope it has at least the same functionality as the Ice-link and has a cool dock made specifically for the Mini.

Oh yes, the greatest disappointment is having to hide the iPod away in the glove department.

I've heard about a repacement down tube with a flexible gooseneck ipod mount. That would be nice!

Actually I like the idea of tho iPod being placed in the glovebox. There'll be no need to stow it away when parking in the city or elsewhere as i would think it attracts attention like a mobile …

Looks like it does go in the glovebox and you need to create special playlists for it to work with some of the buttons. Check out the good summary over at Gizmodo:

Jason – posted that info a couple days ago: http://www.motoringfile.com/2004/06/16/applebmwipodjointventureconfirmed. Not sure if I'm a fan of the process actually.

It is now listed on the Apples website. Looks like the kit will only support the 3rd generation iPods and the mini iPods. Guess that means I will be getting the ICE-Link….. http://www.apple.com/ipod/bmw/
