hmmm does the USB thumbdrive work similar to pluging my iphione in via USB? it would be nice to have it always plugged in and not have to mess with it.

BT for iphone doesnt let me use the fancy controls on the screen compared to USB connection so if a USB thumbdrive works similar to USB iphone then i'm going to do this soon.

iphones can only use the usb adapter for the on screen controls/steering wheel.

BT is not supported on iphones for audio if I remember. same issue with using obd2 adapters, cant use a BT version with the iPhone, only wifi obd2 adapters work, ie: torque app

This problem occurs when all 512 root directory entries have been used. This problem can also occur with fewer than 512 files and folders in the root directory because Windows 95 uses additional directory entries to store long file names.

To ensure compatibility with MS-DOS, Windows 95 uses a standard file allocation table (FAT) file system. The root directory for a FAT drive has a fixed size and is stored in a fixed location on the disk. All hard disk drives use 32 sectors of 512 bytes each to store the root directory. This limits the root directory on a hard disk drive to 16K: 32 sectors x 512 bytes per sector = 16,384 bytes, or 16K.

MS-DOS uses one directory entry for each file and folder, but Windows 95 uses additional directory entries to store long file names and folder names, and the associated 8.3 aliases. This means that you can run out of directory entries with fewer than 512 files or folders in the root directory.

Folders do not have a fixed size, so the only limitation to the number of files or folders you can store in any folder with Windows 95 is free disk space. For this reason, it is best to store your files (programs and data) in a folder off the root directory.

now on my galaxy S3, I have them broken out by /bit rate/genre/artist/album

and most programs recognize and travel thru the sub folders, I expect the entune system will also.

on iphones, all bets are off since they like to store everything in one folder.
