It also has issues figuring out the controllers from time to time, and it absolutely hates switching between two people's IPods without freaking out (mine and the wife's).
There is also a HUGE difference in sound quality between the DICE and the factory CD Changer. I have BSW's Stage II and it sounds MUCH MUCH MUCH better with the radio than with the Ipod via DICE. Which is kind of a bummer, since most of us who have big libraries on our IPods don't like the radio that much.
I was actually considering getting the Dension Gateway 500 for my Audi A8, but after this purchase, I think I'm just gonna wait and see if Audi brings out their as promised retrokit.
Just my $.02,

That is odd, as my experience with the Dice sound quality wise has been quite the opposite. In fact, it sounds just as good-and maybe even slightly better on some songs-than the factory CD changer. The radio sounds terrible in mine-much worse than the Dice/iPod combination. Yes, mine has glitched occasionally, but overall it works great.
