I posted this as soon as I got the email thinking it's news. It's not. The club members get it faster than Mazda sends out newsletter.

Dear Subscriber,

As of August 4, Mazda Motor Corp. issued the following press release:

Factory-installed Audio System

Mazda Motor Corporation will introduce an iPod connection adapter
with which the owner can connect an Apple's iPod digital music player to
Mazda's factory-installed audio system, allowing the occupants to enjoy
music stored in the iPod.

The way that is worded it almost sounds like you can buy an adapter from them that works with what is already in there (stereo).

If that is what they are saying I am excited!
