I really appreciate your help, guys... but come on. The PhatBox alone is $700!! Now you're saying I should buy a Kenwood head unit to have the privelige of attaching one to the car? It sounds like an effective solution, but that's way higher than I'm looking to spend for ICE.

Does anybody have any suggestions of an actual standalone Mp3 solution of some kind?

Hell, all it has to have is storage of some kind, a stereo line-out, a "brain", and a control panel that fits (in some fashion) a DIN opening.

I'm even open to solutions that involve a portable player (line-out required) and a remote LCD interface that I could mount. Does anyone have any ideas?
