Default MP3 Player info needed

I tried my mates Apple iPod in the Fez, hooked it up by plugging in the jack plug from the iPod into the input in the centre console.

Worked fine although the "skip/replay track" function on the Fiesta's stereo would not function including the "paddles" on the steering coloumn........had to use the actual iPod to change tracks etc, the volume adjustment on the Fiesta's stereo was the only function that was available with the iPod plugged in.

Is there another brand of MP3 player where more functions would work with the standard Fiesta stereo?, it would be nice to at least be able to skip to the next track by means of the stereo controls rather than trying to fiddle with the MP3 player whilst driving.

Anyone know of anything available?

In short, no. You can get aftermarket head units that will control an ipod though.
I've got an old shuffle in mine that just sits under the handbrake.
