haha beat ya!

I hope the interfaces will be much more efficient than the current Z1's.

Focus: Would anyone prefer steering wheel controls over touchscreen interfaces for their Ipod?

That article is old news and says nothing about the quality of the integration. In almost every case the solution auto manufacturers offer (at least for the current model cycle) will be nothing more than an auxiliary input for piping audio into the stereo.

It won't be for another full model revolution until we see really advanced iPod integration will full control and text display on the vehicles audio system.

agreed, but you're missing the focus point here....do you think users would prefer simple aux input - steering wheel controls, or fully integrated - Z1 GUI interface (albeit better efficiency)....
