My first gen works (albeit with the indexing issues, etc).

No surprise that iPod is the best. I'm a microsoft man through and through but when it comes to MP3 players, the Zune and everything else just need to concede defeat. The fact that it indexes itself is proof enough. The only problems I ever have are on the car's side with the PDIM sometimes not recognizing that the iPod is plugged in.
Sorry but you can't lay the blame on MS for this. It's a pretty basic architecture decision... let the car decide how it wants to handle it or keep control over everything within the player and honestly MS made the right choice in my opinion. The Camaro/PDIM's indexing system is just crap. There's no excuse for it to behave the way it does. Plenty of aftermarket head units allow you to plug in USB flash drives, etc and they don't have these kinds of idiotic problems.
