I have an Alpine iDA-X300. It does NOT recharge the iPhone. It does play and interface normally through the head unit.

I called alpine they said "Our engineers are aware that the alpine iDA-x300 does not charge the iPhone 3g and they are working on it.

I asked him if they are coming out with a new cable that uses different pins. He wouldn't tell me what they are working on, just that I should call back in a couple of weeks for a solution.

There doesn't appear to be any quick and easy way to hack the cable. I hope alpine will provide a solution for this. Otherwise I will be purchasing the x200 or x100, but not the x001, I hate the fact that you can't turn the navigation wheel all the way around.

I just went to the store Quality Auto Sound in Colorado (where I bought my stereo) and had the most unpleasant discussion with the "salesman". When I talked to the guy at the Apple store, he made me understand why the firmware update should come from Alpine and not Apple. The guy at the store said "you need to upgrade your deck dude". After treating me like complete garbage for 10 minutes. I hope this is resolved. I kept asking the guy at QAS if I can run the Ipod Touch through the USB port with my Apple USB>Ipod connection. He had no idea, what a ******.
