The problem I've found with iPod-ready decks is that unless you have a touch-screen where you can scroll quickly, it can take a long time to get to the middle of your Artist list.
My iPod has ~11,000 songs (~600 artists) and so it takes a long time for me to scroll to the letter M, for example. The deck only scrolls so fast and it doesn't have an option to scroll through the alphabet before listing the bands starting with that letter.
So scrolling the iPod is faster, but it's nowhere near as safe as using your deck to do it. Plus you can stash the iPod in your glove box and forget about it. Looks more professional without the wires everywhere.
very true. that's why i'm getting a double DIN touchscreen next week! i love having the ipod through the deck, but the limited display of a single DIN sucks.

I usually create a playlist consisting of any music I would like to listen to during that time period... you can still skip tracks but there is a lot less songs that you wouldn't otherwise listen to in between.
