iPod Adapter and iPod Touch?? Does anyone have this combo?

Sorry for this dumb question but I'm not all that iPod savvy - my only one is an old 3rd gen.

I ordered the iPod adapter w/ my 08 MCS. It's clear that any "normal" iPod will work with this, but could I instead use an iPod touch?

It just seems to me that if I'm going to buy a new iPod it might as well have 16 GB and really excellent screen w/ wireless access.

Will the adapter hold this in place nicely while I corner hard?

Thanks, in advance, for the assistance

Jeff

My iPhone basically works OK with the first gen factory iPod adaptor - just rarely it'll think the iPhone has disconnected and go back to radio, but re-selecting iPod works.
I'd bet the R56 "second gen" works fine with iPhone and iTouch.

Excellent! This is just what I was looking for. It looks like we're practically neighbors - I'm in West Trenton. Did you buy yours at Princeton M?

I did get it at Princeton Mini. It's a small setup there compared to Prestige Mini, but they're close and I loved the service.

You're not too far off from me. We've been thinking of doing a gtg in the Hboro/Somerville area. May might be a good month to start.
