Default 1st generation Cayenne multimedia options

Hi guys,
I have a list of audio related questions, hope you can help me out.
I was wondering, if there are different audio systems/head units for 1st generation Cayenne Turbo or have all CTTs the same audio system (power, number of speakers, subwoofers etc)? Maybe someone can compare it to BMWs Logic7.
Do all CTTs have navi (DVD or CD?) as standard and do Cayennes have TV/video in option?
Are there any iPod adapters available, that let you control the iPod from factory stereo and display track names?
Any Bluetooth adapters available?

Thanks
Erik

MoBridge is the only real and good option. Also sold as iTronics. ~$850 uninstalled (you could install yourself if your handy).

Or you could spend thousands at your dealer for both only to receive a glorified FM transmitter.

Good luck.
I think only mObridge is the only all in one BT and iPod. I wouldn't waste your time looking at the other options if they also do not have a BT that works through the PCM and simulates the OEM telephone functionality like the mObridge. It is very cool and slick.

A quick search of "ltc AND bose" or "ltc AND pcm" or "ltc AND most" might suggest "why?"

BTW - VW's new Audio system is pretty nice on the Tourage - Anyone here (ummm) might know who makes it?

Much nicer than the Bose in the 2005 Cayenne S...

I went with the Dension Gateway 500 with the new Wi-Drive add on.

One of the features of the WiDrive is that it enables your vehicle to become a mobile internet access point/station to all users in the car.

I also required iPod and USB stick capability for playing music and the Dension was the only product that also supported this USB functionality.

Highly recommended.

2003 Cayenne Turbo.

I asked Larry's widow and she said no.

Not hard to do actually. If you get a chance, listen to the Burmeister audio system in the Panamera (yes, you'll need to close your eyes so the ugliness of the Panamera doesn't make you sick before the listening test).
