Bloomberg reports that Clarion Co will begin selling a car audio and video system in Japan next year that’s compatible with Apple’s iPod portable music player. “People have asked why the iPod can’t be used in car systems, and from that perspective there is plenty of interest,” Tatsuhiko Izumi, president of Tokyo-based Clarion, said in a television interview.

I'm a passionate, long-time lover of Apple products, and was a civil draftsman and graphic designer before creating the iLounge web site. My prior projects include work for The Los Angeles Times' LATimes.com, and the company Creative Domain, where I developed websites for clients including Columbia Pictures, Disney, Fox Studios, Universal Pictures and Warner Brothers. As the Publisher of iLounge, I direct the site's community forums, photo galleries, iPod User Group, and general business affairs, which have grown under my watch to over sixteen million page views every month. I'm happily married with one daughter, one dog (Rocket the Wonderdog), one cat (Ferris), many iPods, iPhones, iPads, and two turntables.
