Do I have a bad Ice>link?

Mine, does the same thing... especially if it reaches the end of a playlist. I have been living with it, but it is becoming a bit annoying. I used to store my iPod in the trunk, but this issue forced me to relocate it to the center console so that if the unit locks I can disconnect the IceLink and reboot the iPod.

BTW three suggestions for Dension - (1) the default first menu item should be Playlist, it's the most used selection and would eliminate a step. (2) Replace Artist with Genre, even if you have a modest collection getting to "K"anye West or "L"enny Kravitz one click at a time is the definition of aggravating... at least with Genre you have only 10 to 20 choices and it would eliminate the need for me to creat smart playings for each of these categories. (3) Restore the ability to control the iPod manually while it is connected to the Ice. I do not forsee a day when all of the iPod functions are mirrored via the Ice's menu system so allow me to make changes while I am at stop lights via the iPod.
