Only two main issues need to be answered by Tom:
- When I press CD 2 to browse playlists the playlist names does not show on the information cluster, why? The same applies when I try to browse album names (CD 3). It is really important to get the playlist name.
- Each time a new song starts, a drop on the volume happens for a second then it comes back to normal. Is that normal?

The DICE will allow song title, Artist and Album information to scroll - but the iPod does not allow the Playlist or Album directories to be listed without locking the iPod. Since keeping the iPod unlocked is priority #1 - this is not a feature of the DICE.
Audio dropouts can happen from not disconnecting the battery, here's what I recommend:
1. Disconnect iPod from cable
2. Remove battery cables, negative first
3. Touch battery cable terminals together (away from battery) for +5 seconds, a small spark is normal as this is stored power draining from the system.
4. Allow cables to remain disconnected for about 5-7 minutes
5. Reconnect battery cables onto battery, negative last.
6. Reboot iPod by pressing on MENU and CENTER buttons for +5 seconds and then reconnecting to the DICE cable after the reboot process is completed.
Let me know if these steps correct the problem.
