my daily commute in the car is about 2hrs+ round trip...give or take 30-40 minutes depending on conditions, but most of the time it's about an hour each way.  this may not seem like much to most in metro cities, but it sucks for me and i hate driving...but i chose to live where i do, away from it all, so that's my penalty.

but...radio also sucks where i live...filled with commercials that suck, dj's that suck, and music that is annoyingly repetitive.  so i bring my ipod on the trip...but then i have a mess of wires and things all over the place.  my charger is plugged in, the itrip is plugged in, the quality sucks when i pass towers, etc...blah, blah, blah.  i want my full library with me all the time, to listen to whatever i want when i want...but i also want it discreetly (www.ipodyourbmw.com).

so here's what i want for options:

(( + ) + + ( - - ) + ) = big winner

So translated: my option of satellite radio (but compatible for both) built into a receiver that allows me to play mp3s as well, added to that an adapter to that radio (like ipodyourbmw.com) so that i can seemless play my ipod tunes without having a charger or radio adapter, and all controlled from my steering wheel.

is that too much to ask? -- yeah, yeah....just go buy a bmw...it will get you everything except dual satellite...anyone got an M3 they want to sell ;-)
