[Vwdiesel] Radio recommendations?

  We just got home and on the way stopped at Circuit City.  They had a
Pioneer DEH-P5500MP for $215 and a $20 mail in rebate.  For the Passat
it "required" a $15 adapter, a $16 adapter and a $4 antenna adapter.  They
had a free installation deal going and we were the last ones to get it.  :)
  Reception wasn't anything outlandish but it was on par with the other
good radios I've gone over the passes with.  :)  Plenty of things to play
with and adjust but volume is a recessable knob and tuning is a simple
tap-tap on the other side.  In other words it's easy to use or about as
complex as you want.
  We only had time to try out one MP3 disk in it but it read all the folders
and apparently all the songs.  It gives the file title at the beginning of
play so title them informatively and you'll be happy.  I might buy me
one of them even!  :)
  On that note a couple list members were interested in his Panasonic
disk changer when this happened.  It's happened so it's available.
