Thank you! I appreciate any praise but my reward is you, the members.
To the best of my knowledge, the changes on the 2011 (other than what you mentioned) are the 2 new colors shown in the buying guide, tempest blue and toffee brown.
9w7 still comes with the ipod cable for playing through the stereo, it's just that the AD2P lets you play any music over the streaming bluetooth. IMHO, the real significance is that it lays the framework for future applications where you listen to live radio from the internet over your smart phone and play it over the radio. This is just starting to show up and AD2P lets you use it, should internet music over the phone become popular. You can always add 9w7 to your car if you don't have it and when they come out with the next generation bluetooth it will probably be a retrofit.
