"Monster and SoundGate have announced the iCruze, a car stereo interface for the iPod that doesn't require a particular head unit, cassette adapter, line-in, FM transceiver, or witchcraft. Utilizing existing CD-changer or satellite radio connections on your current stereo (assuming you have said connections), the iCruze allows you to control and play your iPod with a direct-line connection for what we imagine will be some great sound quality. It will list for $200, and they're also selling an optional display device to show song and artist info. While the price isn't great, this solution allows you to keep your current stereo head unit and forego all those crappy-sounding FM transceiver options." [Via Engadget]The MethodShop Spin: The demand to use your iPod in your car must be immense. How soon will it be before car manufactures start offering an iPod dock car stereo option? Until then the iCruze fills a much needed void. The fact that the iCruze will work with virtually hundreds of different vehicles is a major plus. See an online demo of the iCruze here.
