no rbds???
I can't believe this has never come up, but I did a search for it and didn't find anything. I had an overnight test drive on a '07 Type-S, and one thing I noticed is that the radio apparently doesn't have RBDS. Is that true, or did I overlook it? I looked through the menus and checked the manual, but I couldn't find anywhere to enable it if it's really there.

I think he's referring to what we have called on here RDS (Radio Data System) in which song and station information is transmitted and displayed on your headunit. Apparrently the name in the US is suppose to be RBDS (Radio Broadcast Data System) but most people use RDS.
To the OP, no the TL does not have RBDS. This has been discussed here before and appears on most people's list of features that should be included as most point out that many low priced cars have this option.
