Are these adaptors usable for US W211?

I found this iPod adaptor from Dietz: (google translation)

Item no. 72310: Allows the integration of an Apple iPod to a MERCEDES OEM device with AUX input. It is operated via the multi-function steering wheel. The MP3-tags are displayed in the instrument cluster. Vehicle-specific cable rates see article 72311st

IPod Interfaces
Item no. 72310
IPod Interface for MERCEDES with CAN

http://cgi.ebay.de/DIETZ-72310-iPod-...QQcmdZViewItem

There are tons of adaptors from DIETZ on Germany's eBay site (www.ebay.de search dietz mercedes), and from what I can see, there are TV tuners, A/V inputs, etc., even for cars like ours that do not have the optional TV tuners. There are also interfaces for installing aftermarket stereos and keeping the steering wheel controls, which has been discussed on this forum ad nauseam and found to be next to impossible.

Are any of these available in the US?

This is the company's website, but I am tired of cutting/pasting into google to translate, plus the info is not that complete. http://www.dietz.biz
