Bluetooth audio for Older models

Just got Tune2Air for <$100. Works perfectly with IPod adapter.
Always on and needs no power.
Clear audio.
Steering wheel controls work.
Songs displayed in gauge (even with Pandora)
Even starts playing your last IPhone song when you start the car.

I have a quick question for those that have tune2air. I leave the unit plug in the glove box all the time. I noticed that the power don't turn off on the unit. It always try to connect to my phone when I am at home. Does this happen to you guys too? Btw. I park in the garage.

so it's always on? doesn't that seem weird? i have something similar that i got off of ebay here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Bluetooth-Music-Receiver-wireless-ML-D100-Iphone-Ipod-Docking-Speaker-/120940475445?pt=US_MP3_Player_Cables_Adapters&hash=item1c289d3435
it doesn't show up on the display though, but still works perfectly. it just shows up as "Bluetooth Audio". if i could scroll through the songs and stuff via the steering wheel, that might be more ideal and i'd be willing to try the Tune2Air.

Does it support apps like Sonza and stuff? Also where is this device plugged in the car? In 2011 models specifically? Any other accessories needed with it to make it work?

I regret getting rid of my iPhone 5S and getting a Note 3 now. Maybe, I will just get an iPhone again.

So if the iPhone is connected to this adapter, I'm assuming it's no longer connected to the car? So you lose the Bluetooth phone capability?

Incorrect. You can connect to Bluetooth Audio and Bluetooth telephony at the same time. Of course when the phone rings the Audio will turn off and the telephone will take over. But you don't have to manually connect and disconnect back and forth.

Anyone that is using it?

Also wondering if it is compatible with Android phones?

Just wanted to say thanks again for the tip on Tune2Air. Bought it and it works great! I have no issues with connection and it's nice that it doesn't interfere with calls.

Really that's cool but could I use an iPod though or must use an iPhone for this purpose ?

How about the quality of the sound ?

I use the IPhone... perfect quality... perfect everything except can't pause or use Siri because it appears to always be pressing play each time you try to pause...
