I finally got the part in from Staples, after much confusion with the shipping of the adapter.

That all being said, once connected up, the following occurs:

1. The Archos 5 recognizes the connection and prompts me to either select charge only or connect.
2. I select connect and the device goes into HD mode.
3. Unfortunately, the Bose/Nissan HU does not recognize the device as an iPod or connected device. This leads me to believe that the USB to iPod cable is not a hardware-based connection, that it also has to do with software.

I can still charge the device using the connection, but cannot get it to interface with the system. It was worth a shot. I'm curious to see what will happen when Nissan switches to a USB input over the iPod input. Will this be a simple swap out of the cable or will there be some software changes in the HU as well?
