Default S2000 & Phat noise systems

Hi there

Any news on the compatibility between S2000 and the PhatNoise system ? I just checked out their web site, and now they don't even have Honda as a supported brand any longer !

Have any of you guys heard some more optimistic news lately ????

Phatnoise signed a contract with Vesteon (who?) and Kenwood. They dropped support for all other units. I was going to get one for the Sony, but looks like that isn't an option anymore. I was going to send them a nastygram.

Hello PhatNoise Priority List Members!

It's summer time... and we know those road trips and Friday afternoon getaways are coming up. So we thought it might be good to get some new PhatBoxes out there to make the drive a lot more fun. Plus, we have some new features to announce that will make the PhatNoise Experience even better. Check out this preview of coming attractions:

The coveted PhatNoise Car Audio System will be available again direct from PhatNoise starting July 29th, with support for BMW, Audi, VW, and Sony car stereos, plus NEW support for Ford! Prices range from $799-$859 for 20GB models.

Here's what's cool about the Summer Sale PhatBoxes:

- NEW: USB 2.0 cradles! Lightning-fast transfers for massive music

Anyone know a good place for the Music Keg cheap, or how it compares to PhatBox prices?

From what I've seen it is about the same price (about $50-$150 less). It is the same system with a kenwood style cover.

Know if I could buy the Music Keg and use the firmware change and adapters to get it to work with a Sony? Is the Keg the same as the PhatBox LE?

I'm currently debating between the PhatBox/Keg and an MP3 changer- the prices have come down enough that a 10 disc changer is relatively cheap... I'd rather all have it on one HDD, though, than on 10 discs.

Marcucci, from what I've read in the forums at www.phatnoise.com, the kenwood music keg will only work with Kenwood decks.

Buy the Phatbox EL on July 29 and get the Sony adapter.

I have a music keg and kenwood deck and just love it!
