iPod/iPhone audio and sync cable

Let me get it out of the way at the beginning of this post. Monoprice rocks. I've used them for years for various cables, usually ethernet and HDMI and have always been impressed with the high quality of their cables and surprised by their low prices. A couple weeks ago I was listening to the Real Deal podcast from Cnet.com and heard about a cable that really fit a need in my life. A caller was asking about ways to get their iPod into their car stereo and one of the hosts suggested a cable from Monoprice that connected via the iPod dock connector and had USB and stereo audio out on the other end. This cable was the answer to my frustrating car audio problems.
