Product Description
iPod is a lineup of digital audio players from Apple Computer. Despite the lightweight and compact size - most iPods are pocket size - the Hard Disk Drive can hold up to 10.000 songs downloaded from a computer. Pioneer's CD-IB100II iPod adapter permits direct control and playback of iPod through the iPod Adapter Ready head units. Compatible Pioneer head units can be connected with an iPod via this dedicated adapter, and using the touch panel or soft keys, listeners can play iPod-recorded songs with the following convenient functions: Text Information Display, Multiple "Search" Functions, Repeat Playback, and "Shuffle Songs" Function for Random Playback.

Great product......thankful September 8, 2008
Avinaash Singh (Trinidad & Tobago)
This item is great for those folks who have receivers that are not "iPod ready". Processing is a bit slow depending on the age of the receiver but it's a great product nevertheless.
 Fantastic product; ignore the poor reviews! August 6, 2008

I am not sure what others have been complaining about with this product. I read tons of reviews before purchasing and was worried about some of the issues previous reviewers have noted; mainly the time it takes to scroll through songs. Alas, I decided that the benefits surely must outweigh the negatives; with that being said, I am glad that I ordered this product.
For the record, I have an older Pioneer DEH 3800MP that I have been using along with the Pioneer satellite tuner. I didn't have an extra input left on my head unit and I wanted to keep satellite radio, which is why this product is great for people like me who want to have iPod control without losing the satellite function. Installation was simple and straight forward. The sound output is crystal clear and I am amazed at how much better the sound is from my iPod versus satellite.
Scrolling through songs isn't near as troublesome as some have noted. USE PLAYLISTS (it is what the iPod is designed for, right?) and there is no problem. It might not be quite as fast as changing songs directly on the iPod itself, but I don't perceive any significant delay and it certainly isn't bothersome. I have an 80G iPod with about 8,000 songs; it would certainly be problematic to try and scroll through song after song to get to what you want to hear from the main music file, but if you create a playlist(s) for your car with a bunch of songs you like, then you can just let it play and advance past any song that you don't care to hear.
I do understand the complaint about the unit only displaying 8 characters; my head unit can display 16 characters, so why Pioneer limited this, I don't know? It is a minor inconvenience, however, and look at it this way, titles or artists that have 8 characters or less show up just fine!
All-in-all, I think it is a great product and well worth every bit of $50.
Superb and Subtle... June 18, 2008

I purchased the CD-IB100II iPod Adapter for a great price and installed it in my car in less than an hour including time to put connectors on the power leads, and fish all the wires inside my dash to conceal the control box and fittings. My Premier DEH-980BT provides full support for iPod displays, option settings and controls through the main display and knob, that acts in every way just like the actual iPod control wheel.
The sound is clean - trust me - once you have direct-wired your iPod to your car stereo and do not use an FM Modulator or wired FM connection, you will never go back to a compromise solution like that. This is the ultimate solution to using an iPod, hiding the iPod, and getting the benefit of all the displayed data right on your stereo.
This unit also has an additional IP Bus connection so you can "daisy chain" another device, such as a Sirius or XM radio interface. With one of those added to my head unit, I have a huge number of music sources at my finger-tips in a single DIN-1 head unit. It's so understated that it will not attract much attention. That's a good thing if you live in a "bad neighborhood". It's a good thing if you like your car uncluttered.
For the price, this is one of the best upgrades I have ever made to a car!
Pausing isn't a problem (with the Pioneer DEH-P980BT head unit) - just choose a different source or answer the phone and the unit automatically pauses the iPod - no need to go drilling into the menu to find the pause feature! Also I have not noticed any delay retrieving songs. It's just as fast as the iPod.
The unit charges while plugged in, uses car power to run, and shuts off automatically when you shut off the car.
Awesome product March 11, 2008
Michael Atcheson (Grove City, Pennsylvania United States)
This product was very easy to install. I really like the fact that I can see the Artist,Albumn & Song Title on my head unit instead of always looking down to see them on my i-pod (which can be hazardous), plus the fact it also charges my i-pod.
