dumb question about ipods + connectors

[J_Shiff 10+ year member]

Hey, am i able to get a ipod connector for any HU? like my DEH-4800mp. it skips alot and i am hoping an ipod would do the trick.

Also, ive never owned an ipod and i am curious if any ipod will work with the ipod connector. I am thinking of just getting a 1gb ipod SHUFFLE off of ebay and getting the connector. Will that work?

no, the shuffle will not work with the unit, unless you plan to run an auxillary cable..

The only ipods that will work with the ipod control unit from pioneer, are the ones with a dock connector.
