I have decided to try a little experiment to test the functionality of the iPod interface and my Archos USB based media player. Although the 2010 370z's will likely have USB interface (assuming the rumors are true), I ended up buying a 2009 since the timing was right for me to do so. I do not have an iPod, nor do I really want to buy one, so I decided to buy the following adapter and see if it will work with the Archos:
In theory, it could work, unless there is something I do not understand about the interface. I figured it was worth a shot and I can always return it to Staples if it doesn't work. I had to order it online, so it will be a few days before it comes in, I will post back when it does and I try it.
If not I guess I will have to see if the 2010 USB interface is easily integrated into the 2009 models.
