Price?

rickhuizinga

The Gateway 500 has a composite video out connector.

I'm not sure how to hook this into the PCM, but the maxcount.de site has some type of video adapter for the PCM for 500EUR (I think that was the price).

Not true.

Email me.

Yes, we are trying to honor those who have stuck with us for so long, but I can work with you. Just email me if you have not heard back already. We are obligated to first honor everyone who has been listed, then we can see what we can do for anyone else getting in this late.

We are well underway with the group buy ordering, and it is now active. Units should ship out this week for those who commit this weekend.

Everyone who was on the list should have received email notification last night with the link to ordering at the phenomenal group buy price. If you were on the list, and did not receive, first check your email folders as it may have been seen as spam. Then email me directly and be sure my email address is cleared in your system.

Thanks again everyone for your patience.

Eric,
Thanks for helping me out and getting me on the list. Now, I'll have 2 things waiting for the car to arrive!

Does anyone know if the unit offers the same functionality with a mass storage device as it does with an IPOD?

Eric's group buy price can't be beat. Some come close, but nothing at this price!

For those of you waiting for your Gateway 500, I checked the power source here:



It is in wiring harness at the back left (facing the car). I do not have Nav or CD and was directed to this plug to provide continuous power to the unit (measured @ 12.8v). I am going to check with my local Porsche dealer to see if they have the male side to make the connection.

I am planning on breaking into the MOST ring at the Bose amplifier. I also will probably mount the IPOD in the trunk and update it every once in awhile depending on control from the head unit.

That looks like the power plug I found for the CD Changer (which I don't have). There are three cables there, Do you know what they each do?

I am probably going to either splice them or cut them .. as I do not plan on adding the CD Changer.

1 is 12volt (red/green ?) I assume, have not tested!
1 is ground-(brn/brn ?)
1 is "wake up diagnostic" other one ?- can't find my magnifing glass, printed it out from manual

Is it possible to navigate by artists or albums? Or is it only playlists?

rebe1

Anyone know if I would I be voiding my warranty by installing this? Thanks.

In the picture the wire closest to the upper side of the plug as shown is +12.8v and the middle wire is the grnd. I don't know what the other one does...

Yep, you can navigate by artists or albums using the menu structure on CD6. There's a whole bunch of pics of the menu structure posted earlier (on page 5) in this thread.

I tested it today;

1.Red/Green is 12v
2.Brown is ground
3. White/Red = ?

The 12v is always on.. I am not sure if this might add a strain on our batteries..

Manual wants 12 volts to retain i-pod charging in 2 of 3 modes. I don't know if it looses setup if not constant 12 volts!
