IBus || MOST ring in new E70?
 
Does anybody know if the new E70 has the standard IBus or an M.O.S.T. ring instead. I want to get a PC <-> IBus interface for my new (still on order) E70 but if it doesn't have the IBus then I don't know what to do and how to conect Car 2 PC.

Cheers.

Check the reference documents it has lots of electrical info, bus systems and wiring diagrams.

We'll have a video interface for e70 soon, however it will only allow for audio/video display. This vehicle does not have ibus.

Will you have a solution similar to the 6FL Ipod Integration, w/ I drive control?

No control will be available - this will merely emulate the television interface for an A/V gateway.

MMouse - what specifically do you want to connect your PC too ? If it's the M.O.S.T. ring (it's a network) for information, control commands and digital content related to communication, audio, video, etc. you will need to wait until you can get a hardware/software interface to port the M.O.S.T. network traffic through a USB or RS232 PC connection.

Well, I was just hoping to get some control over little anoying things of E70 that people discuss here, improve the NAV stuff etc. Nothing major, more like toying with the car. The two IBus 2 PC inteface gadgets found here http://www.reslers.de/IBUS/ and here http://www.eedesignkits.com/ are fairly simple and inexpensive, but for IBus only not MOST. And there is a software issue too as you pointed.
