Point by Point Comparison DICE vs GROM:

AUDIO QUALITY - same for DICE and GROM (CD Quality)

ADDTL. AUX input - same (Present in both DICE and GROM)

AUX Input Audio Quality
-DICE is better. It comes with adjustable Bass, Mid and Treble. AUX unit can also be recalled through CD-5 button. I have my DVD Player Audio routed through here!
-GROM does not have this function. To toggle between the IPOD and the AUX unit, you have to disconnect one of them.

IPOD INTEGRATION
Audio Quality - same CD Quality Audio

Playlist Accessing
DICE is better, ALL Playlists are acdcessible / GROM is limited to 5 Playlists only

Accessing of other IPOD Content
-DICE is better, you can access by Playlist, by Album, By Artist, By Song. Song titles, Artists, Album titles all appear on my instrument cluster pixelized screen.

-GROM - Only 5 playlists can be accessible through the MID Radio controls. Although you can just plug on your IPOD through the AUX input of the GROM and access the songs through the IPOD controls directly.

PRICE:
GROM $70
DICE $160 (128% MORE THAN THE GROM)

Overall Comment / Verdict:
-DICE is for the Audiophiles and iPOD/Music Addicts who does not mind spending 128% more just to have the iPOD unit hidden and out of sight. Needs to see his X5 dashboard clean and neat!

-GROM is for the budget conscious music iPOD lovers who don't care if they access other iPOD content through the iPOD buttons itself.

I currently love the DICE! (until a better one comes along). Thanks guys! Hope this helps.
