yes i know there are uplinks, but how many of those mp3 players can you control from the headunit of the car?

Many head units are available with mp3 uplinks, not just for the ipod. Some new cars also come with mp3 uplinks as an extra option. I agree with GReddy. I hate ipods. They're overpriced... and they're made by apple... I'd much rather have a *non apple* mp3 player.

how many other mp3 players can you buy an adapte for, that allows you to control it directly from the headunit of your car?
it's like one 2000 song cd

most likely:
not too many.

RE: stupid iPod...
I was hoping you'd reply, Fiirkan... anyway, I reset the iPod several times (every time it froze), and it didn't help.
Anyway, I managed to get it connected only to get an "iPod corrupted" or whatever message, so now I'm in the process of restoring it to the factory settings... now I get to re-load almost 900 songs on the iPod... not that I really care, but it's going to take a while...
Anyway, the reason I love iPods is that I have a Pioneer head unit with iPod direct control... my iPod never leaves my glove box (unfortunately, scrolling through artists/songs is a b***h using the head unit.... one name at a time lol)

And that is the same reason i love my ipod, but i have a JVC headunit. I just put my ipod on shuffle and then let it play, if i don't want to listen to the song thats on i just change it till i get to one i want lol

RE: stupid iPod...
Okay, I restored it and once everything was done, I got the "device not recognized" message again, but only once this time... then, the iPod connected correctly (I'm not sure why I got the error message at first)... right now, it's syncing, so I'm hoping my problems are over lol
and being able to hear your music ftw! My rear right wheel bearing has been going out for the last few months, and I finally got around to scheduling an appointment to have it changed.... so when I get the car back tomorrow, I'll actually be able to hear my music without having the volume almost all the way up!

RE: stupid iPod...

*edit: my iPod's okay... everything worked out
