This is what I think is an awesome idea, maybe it has already been
done, but I think it would be awesome if Apple would partner with a
headunit manufacture (Alpine would be my preference) to make a
headunit with 802.11b/g(WiFi), so that when I pulled in my garage and
the headunit gets a signal from my wireless network, it would autosync
its library with the Itunes software library. Or really it wouldn't
have to be itunes, but just a headunit that operated on WiFi that I
could drag MP3s to. I think its an awesome idea.. Well the car would
probably have to be operating for this to happen because harddrive
writing is power intensive...Probably not more than a battery can
provide without running out, especially for normal transfers...Just an
idea.

Far more workable, generally, is to take the hard drive with you. And
hey, if it's a hard drive that you're carrying around, why not make it
an mp3 player itself?

Alpine should be coming out with an iPod adapter shortly; it sticks your
iPod on the AiNet bus and gives you basic transport controls as well as
song information/browsing from the Alpine head unit.

Dension (http://www.densionusa.com) also has a similar solution that
works with a bunch of different head units, the iceLink (especially the
1.1 version, which includes an integrated iPod cradle/Dock for the car).
The iceLink currently only provides transport controls, not browsing or
song information display, but it's something.
