>> I do know for a fact that the Lumia 920 won't work with my car stereo, so I son't think it's a better option for me. Your car doesn't support bluetooth audio? My G37X supports it. If you can pair for calling, you can do bluetooth audio. The car also has a standard USB port, good for charging, among other things. USB cables literally cost pennies. Thats really unfortunate, that the capability is lost in your BMW due to Apple's switch from one closed standard to another. But this sort of thing is really quite typical when one moves from mainstream standards to proprietary standards. There is a very real cost factor as well, initially concealed from iThing purchasers, in the form of "IP fees" passed on to the manufacturers of the limited subset of peripherals available.
