iPod question
I have a classic Ipod, and to charge it I have to either plug it into my laptop or in a wall outlet. Isn't it charging when I'm playing it in the car? I was hoping to just plug it in behind the screen and leave it there or do I have to take it in the house to charge it? Thanks

I don't have a C7 yet and I use a cigarette lighter usb type adapter to charge my ipod.
My C6 radio has an AUX input in front and I was wondering if the C7's has the same setup. Does your cars use the 2 plug on one end to ipod plug on the other?
Thx

Ipod issue
My iPod classic charges fine. The issue I have is it freezes after a short time of playing. I bought an iPod touch and it works fine. All usb plugs should charge.

So yesterday I have a 100 mile trip. I get in the car, grab the iPod, choose on the go playlists and choose 6 artists I want to hear. Put it back and get on the road, set shuffle.
Show me how to do that on a SD car WHILE IN THE CAR.

I have an IPhone, IPod, SD card and thumb drive for my music and I listen to one of my 20 or so Pandora stations most of the time. Use a cable to the IPhone and control it from the screen.
