I recently had a buddy connect his newer I-pod/I-phone (3rd Gen) to the car and it didn't work out so great.
The problem was you can only shuffle through playlist/Artist through the console rather than using the clockwheel/I-phone.Is the clockwheel feature only for old 4th Gen I-pods. I cant shuffle through songs on my phone. Is that because of the firmware upgrades? I am a big fan of the Clockwheel and I-pod feature on the I-phones.
I read several Blogs and found the latest and greatest is the ice/Silverline. I have yet to find out what I need to buy. It looks like I have to buy the whole Dice/Silverline kit. Do I need to install all the new cables (I undersand it on takes 20 or so min)? Pictures look like is the same kit from the outside( imagine it is different hardware/software). Can I get away of just replacing the module? If i can get away just replacing the module, can I buy just the Module? Well, thanks for help and Happy New Years. Peace

The touch, new Classic and 3rd Generation nano lock the iPod's Clickwheel when attached to 3rd party devices, this is an iPod-specific issue - not the DICE.
Earlier iPods on a non-SILVERLINE kit do not experience this issue. All DICE-specific features are still available. If Clickwheel operation is desired, you can set the DICE module's DIP switches to Simple iPod mode to gain access of the Clickwheel, but will lose text display on the radio when doing so.
