    I don't think so. Never have been, never will be! Don't care to hang around the Seattle area. :)

    So what's your story? Why do you think that Apple is such a great company? Are an Apple employee?

    I was working for a major electronics firm in late 70's and I had to work with Apple. I didn't care for the experience. Furthermore, I haven't seen anything unique from Apple? What great technology have they created? They couldn't even get their own O/S to fly and finally gave up and are using a Linux based OS. Again, what is so special about Apple?

    Should we be discussing this here, or should we move this discussion to another forum?

    Technology? Maybe they don't invent things outright but they have a taken concepts and made them work unbelievably great. If anything, they are masters of human interface. Imagine how easy to use the iPod integration would be if Apple designed it for Toyota.

    So I bought a USB drive to test out the USB tab on the radio. Works a bit better than the ipod interface, but what's up with locking out the folder navigation when moving. Why can't Toyota do something right with regards to the audio system. Ridiculous!

    The guy who designed the radio interface must be the same dufus that designed the brake pedal in the recalls.
