Default KICKER Zune Car Audio Solution at CES 2008

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ro4GYnPH3NM



A quick interview with Joe Hobart from KICKER about their new Zune car audio solution. This video was taken at CES 2008 in the very noisy car audio section, so the audio isn't as clear as it could have been. The KICKER solution looks quite comprehensive, allowing a great deal of control over the Zune.

I drive a Toyota Prius with navigation, this sounds amazing, they didn't mention if the nav touch screen would control the zune too.

Step one finally get my zune original, step two cancel the rhapsody garbage that urge signed me up for then, sign up for a zune pass

step three get this system next month

Default Nav Touch Screen

The Touch screen in your Prius will work. The control parts are currently in testing and are not available yet.

You will also need the CORE controller to use with the controller box. It should be available in a month or two pending Microsoft testing.

The Zune 80 sounds better to me than the ZEN Vision:M 30
I'm eagerly awaiting this product's launch.

2003 and newer Honda/Acura

Do you know if they are planning on creating models that support the older acuras. I have a 1999 3.0 CL and i was interested in putting this in my car.
