Keep your eyes open for retrofit kit's for this unit, i don't know quite how the facelift fit's into it if at all.

Basically its the retrofit of the USB (and others) setup in the new model's coming out that gives the the ability to connect any standard's compatible device to the car (MB specific compatibility is not required), just about everything will be supported and the system will also supply power to the devices.

This will be a serious upgrade from the traditional iPod kit since it will allow access to many more devices.

I will keep you guys informed as i find out more info with regard to headunit compatibility and so on.
