What year did they put in USB

I know at least an 09 has the usb port so what year did they start? Is there a site somewhere that shows these little changes year to year?

I think that the USB came with Bluetooth as an option. I'm not sure if there is a place to show when options became standard.

USB is integrated into the same module as Bluetooth and was always an extra cost option, never standard in the R56.

I have bluetooth that I can make phone calls through but I guess I can't stream music through it but I don't have the USB, only AUX.

I did find a 30-pin Apple plug in the secret compartment above my glove box today though. Seems like more of a hassle leaving my phone over there with an adapter to lightning than just using an aux cord.
