Looks like I'm ahead of the technology curve! I've been listening to my Mp3's by patching my IPOD through my car stereo for over a year. I just recently started downloading IMAO-Podcast to listen to in the car. Turns out that a podcast has to be pretty damned good for me to be listening to it on my car. On the other hand, I drive in places where there is almost NO radio reception. When you get sick of CD's it's awesome to listen to whatever's on your Mp3 player. You can get one of these stereos with the 3.7mm jack at any Circuit City or Bestbuy.
