I was wondering the same thing, everytime I plug mine in you need to choose USB or Bluetooth . It would be cool to just plug in and its ready to go

that sucks. i dont really want to jailbreak mine. i had a sony xplode in my truck and that had a setting to use either radio or ipod to control. i hope this has that kind of setting and we just dont know about it yet.

Jailbreaking is very easy and offers lots of nice extras. I understand your concern bit just wanted to offer some confidence if you are worried about doing it.

I am looking for the app. Is it actually "NoAccSplash"? I think this is the correct one. Or maybe it is just similar.
