Doe ... you should have an aux hook up in the console of your car. Pam's does. I plug my Iphone in all the time and play the music on my Ipod.

With the money you have, go ahead and get an Ipod touch.

i think i have that and will check, seems like i saw something once in the console that i didnt know what it was for

what does the ipod touch do, i already have an ipad

 

[doemasters]

I do have an aux hookup

If you have the Ipad then I wouldn't bother with anything else. If I understand you correctly, you just want some type of music storage device that you can play music in your car with. While the Ipad is a bit bulky for just that, it would be fine for what you want to do. The Ipod touch (same size as an iphone) is basically a smaller version of the ipad. I would load my music on the ipad and just play it through your aux plug on the Accord.

so i think you have a few options...

aux port - cheap if you have it already.
parrot bluetooth for streaming and handsfree - $200 + harness - harness you can get from http://www.quickconnectproducts.com (for our Ody, it cost us $150 for the harness, but meant I didn't have to cut wires) took me about 30 mins to install.
USASPEC device, which gives you integration to show tracks on your stock headunit. it's ok, I like the parrot w/ handsfree better personally.
