iSimple InSeam
Anybody have one yet?

Looks pretty good , bluetooth, steering wheel and voice control of your phone...except for a couple of caveats...Price being one of them (about 200$). Wondering about sound quality of the direct connect FM thru the antennae and why can't it use the built-in mic of the TL?
Going to install short shifter and it would be a good time to install, but I don't want to be the guinea pig! Can't find them for sale yet online either.
May be something to keep an eye on.

Why congratulate your brother on his new child? That would *almost* imply that the world doesn't revolve around her! Shock! Turmoil! Collapse!

It's an interesting idea- she's driving a Hyundai Sonata which looks like it's equipped with a Nav and I assume Bluetooth for audio and phone connectivity. $200 would seem like a lot of cash to update a newer car just to post Facebook status/ have texting in the car. If my existing car had BT audio and BT phone connectivity, I don't think I'd spend the cash. Otherwise, it looks like a good product. I think reading/ hearing/ responding to texts (although you're not directly handling the phone) is still a distraction. Technically, so is a phone call, but to me texts are more of a distraction.
As for voice control of Nav functions, I have that now, and other than using voice control to say 'Go home', I haven't used it.
By the way, I hate Facebook. I use no social media (maybe I'm behind the times).

Oh... OK. I get it now...00g.
I'm not much on FB or texting while driving, but I do like the idea of navigating thru the music on my phone with the steering wheel controls. Much safer than fiddling with the phone going down the road.
I also do not have a line-in hooked up yet. I installed a FM-direct thru the antenna on my daughters car and it was much better than FM modulation, but still not quite as good as a hard line.
I would like some feedback from someone who has installed InSeam - Is the sound quality approaching a direct line-in, does the phone app work good, is the nav-display utilized, can it use the built-in mic of the TL, ... How InSeam integrates with the TL...
I just had the console tore apart this weekend to install the short-shifter. Would have been a great time to add something like InSeam while I was in there, but I couldn't wait

I guess the only thing I don't get is why iSimple would use an FM line in vs. connection to the multipin connector at the back of the radio- I would think the audio quality would be suboptimal this way- as they make other devices that plug in the back of the radio, why go with an FM in connector? It doesn't make sense to me.
