    Question Does an iPhone cradle exist?

    Hi all,

    I've searched and I don't think it's been asked before...

    Is there to be an iPhone cradle?

    Thanks

    Ben.

    Try contacting the following:-

    http://www.satnavsystems.com/shopdis...id=17&cat=audi

    They may just be able to link your phone and i-pod to the MIMI system - best of both world then?

    Let me know if it is possible - considering the same myself.

    "but no charging unless you have an unsightly wire?"

    Yes, that's right... but the charge last all day long.

    BTW, I too have searched for an iPhone cradle to no avail.

    I talked to the R8 Advocate Team about phone cradles, and they told me that Audi is moving away from them because phones and phone technology is changing so fast. They expect bluetooth technology to be what most people rely on for in-car connectivity.

    SatNavSystems (link in earlier post) installed the bluetooth connectivity for me and it works fine with my iphone. They also installed ipod connectivity too
    but this is a separate cable connection in the glovebox - iphone incompatible unfortunately.
