Hi all!

So I'm planning to get my wife a new car stereo for Xmas (shhhhhh! don't tell!).

I was thinking it'd be neat to get her one with USB input/controls, so she could plug her beloved iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen into it. Sure, lots of car stereos have an aux input, but it'd be great if she could control everything directly from the stereo. Something like this looked ideal:

But... I've seen at least one user review online warning that it wouldn't work with the iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen! Which would defeat the purpose!

Has anyone out there tried this? Had any experience with the problem? Can anyone recommend a stereo that *would* work?
