Virtually all decent mobile manufacturers offer a head unit solution which has either direct control of an iPod though the head unit or the connection of a USB flash drive. I know Alpine's line intimately as I have owned several and currently have an Alpine W205 in my car. If your DAP isn't an iPod then I guess your out of luck, but I can completely understand why most mobile manufacturers only support direct link with an iPod as it's the most popular DAP on the market. If you're not into iPods then a flashdrive would work, although the GUI isn't as pretty. As for supporting FLAC I would have to agree with the majority that it's overkill for a car's environment and the mobile manufacturers seem to agree (not to mention the limited space of DAP's and flashdrives right now). -- EnochLight ------------------------------------------------------------------------ EnochLight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3392 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47211 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
