yeh the "Control:Ipod" just means that i can use my Ipod touch as normal rather then use it all on the Head Unit, i find it easier to use the ipod then go through the Head Unit

Ah, cool, thanks. Yeah, direct control would be easier, but I'd rather have mine hidden personally. It's only an old Classic with a weak battery, so not much use away form a constant power source.

with the ipod touch having a touch screen i find it so much easier to control as the sreen is easy to read and just a quick tap of the screen and ive selected my songs.
