What about the 12 accessory connector on the bottom of the middle console?

Just run the wire back along the console and under the seat.

yes, thats what I (and probably many others) do for my IPOD's power cable

My dealer in NY says he won't see/get one until next May...

I heard not till the end of next year from a somewhat reliable source.

Which isnt hard to believe after seeing how long its taking the Ford Escape Hybrid to hit the market....theyve been almost two years late with that one.
