I just won a brand new 16GB iPod Nano (8th. generation) as a door prize at a training session for my work.

I'm just now getting some of my music library synced onto it and charging it up. But what I wondered is if anyone else can confirm whether or not the Bose head unit in a "Tech" version of our 370Z will control it/talk to it properly when attached to the USB port in the center compartment?

I just assumed it would, but now I'm reading some stories about these newer versions of iPod Nanos not communicating anymore with a lot of car stereos ... at least not where it can fully control it, playing from custom playlists you created on the iPod, playing based on genre, artist, etc. ?
