The console hard drive....any speculation...
I personally think that it is about time that an auto maker give the consumer the capability to store mp3s on a large media without the use of aftermarket devices like the ipod.
Does anyone think that the hard drive in the RD-X concept is anything that may become a reality for production? I want my id3 tags!

I personally think that it will make it. Heck--Buick offers a hard-drive on their new Terraza minivan

I think the RDX will have it...it's a key feature in the concept.

One word....NO!
Just like the rear view cameras, the 4 wheel Brembo's, any other aspect of the concept interior etc etc.
It got your attention. Now they will bury the very items that made you look at the car in the first place.
Oh and expect it to run off the base TSX powerplant!
It will be nothing more than a glorified CRV!!

They are talking about a hard disc drive as in computer storage medium.
Different animal than iDrive (thank gawd).

good enough for me - does that mean that the head unit will display the track name and all that? never owned a new vehicle, especially with cool gadgets.

Acura and Honda don't usually bring the same exact things into their lineup from brand to brand like Lexus and Toyota does (Camry vs ES330, Land Cruiser vs LX470 & previous LX450).

AN FRANCISCO, Calif. 09/07/2005 --
Acura today unveiled the Acura Music Link iPod(R) adaptor, which allows seamless integration between iPod and Acura audio systems. The new accessory developed by Acura enables drivers to listen to their iPod in digital sound directly through the audio system in the 2006 Acura RL, TL and TSX sedans and MDX SUV. Acura Music Link allows drivers to select their music by artist, album, genre and play list through the standard controls on the audio system head unit. Additionally, the Acura Music Link adaptor will be the first to include text-to-speech capabilities or VoiceID, when searching through the iPod music library with the audio system controls.
"We are very excited to partner with Apple and offer the Music Link accessory to our Acura customers," said Stony Furutani, manager of Acura accessory marketing. "Acura vehicles are equipped with the latest audio technology and we are pleased to expand the audio experience to iPod users."
"We're thrilled to team up with Acura, to provide drivers with a seamless iPod experience," said Greg Joswiak, Apple's vice president of iPod product marketing. "Car companies are embracing the iPod, and over 30% of the cars sold in the US in 2006 will offer iPod integration."
The Acura Music Link adaptor provides outstanding sound quality while charging the iPod battery at the same time by a cable conveniently located in the glove compartment. The adaptor will be available starting in mid-December exclusively for purchase and installation at Acura dealers. Suggested retail pricing for the Acura Music Link will be approximately $250 plus dealer installation charge. Acura Music Link is backed by a full Acura factory warranty. Consumers should check with Acura dealers for specific restrictions.
iPod's are available at in the U.S. through the Apple Store(R) at www.apple.com and at selected retail outlets.
