Hi im thinking of replacing the standard head unit in my S, and while i have seen lots of topics about the various units that will work with an ipod or iphone has anyone found one that works with spotify mobile? The phone i have is a nokia 5800 and idealy i would like to still be able to use the dash controls. Any help most welcome.

Are Spotify tracks saved onto the phone's memory? I thought that they are streamed to the device using a Wifi or GPS connection?

You can have them saved on the phones memory for up to 30 days at a time so you can play them when your not in a wifi zone.

Thanks for the info on the Alpine IDA-X305S lovegroova i will have a look at that.

See here for a bit more about it and using it with pandora (US-based, but might be helpful).

Its a great stereo, will take an iphone / ipod and normal USB sticks, so download them chuck them onto a USB device and play away!
