|
Has anyone heard/seen/experienced if the D4 has touch screen iPod control like the FFRR already has?

From Discovery 10MY Press Release
Quote:The new Portable Audio Interface allows connectivity to an array of personal audio storage devices,
USB sticks and MP3 players, enabling the various devices’ functions to be accessed and controlled via the
facia-mounted touch-screen system.
One of the connectivity ports is a dedicated iPodTM point made exclusively by Land Rover. This special design provides continued functionality in extreme driving conditions by helping to prevent the device coming loose from the socket.
A new, five-inch TFT driver information LCD screen is also introduced with the Discovery 4. Sitting within the redesigned instrument cluster, the message centre display ensures key information is communicated in a
clean, simple and user-friendly manner.
Sounds interesting but I guest we will have to see

iPod control works fine in my new D4. iPod charges, and control through the touchscreen is OK - though not always very intuitive!

it works fine.... although its all a bit small.
The track listings are all on 1 line and it does not how a hierarchical view, so its quite easy to get lost.
Doesnt charge a iPhone either - but works fine with a touch

Control works well on mine, better than my Mini. But doesn't charge a brand new Touch?! 2011 D4 Landmark, Mini Cooper SD Clubman, Range Rover Vogue SE

See the earlier thread - you can buy an adapter for £20 which means that an iPod will charge. Very simple and effective. Mine works just fine. Paul

Shoddy if its not got 5v charging for all the new iPods, that has been the spec since iPod touch version 2 last year!
Who wants a chunky adapter, on their brand new car.
