Hi guys,
I'm thinking about trying out the SmartDeck from Griffin, although reviews have been so-so thus far. But if it works in my car (an '04 Prius) having control would be very valuable indeed.
However, I'm troubled by the fact that it doesn't seem like the new dock-connector SmartDeck offers any way to power your iPod -- there's no mention of a pass-thru to allow you to connect an external connection to your car accessory charger. Is there any way to get form the dock-connector SmartDeck to a power adaptor in your car? I can't believe Griffin would overlook such a necessary feature, especially when such a feature is implemented in other Griffin devices, like the dock-connector iTrip.
Also, any input on the SmartDeck in general would be much appreciated.
