The Acura TL with Tech package has a little screen on which you can display pictures or set one picture as a screen saver.
Interesting that you can now do that in the Civic Si and the standard Civic too I think

Not that I see it serve any purpose beyond being a bells & whistles enhancement not adding any real value. When I was shopping for the Si, iPod connectivity meant a lot. I even bought a cable (not the pricy Honda cable) from Target to hook up my iPod in the car as it featured a 350 watt sound system with iPod connectivity.
Used it maybe for a couple of minutes and never again after that. So what I thought was a great feature in the car turned out to be nothing but a cheap trinket after I'd purchased it.
I wonder how much scrutiny or attraction that new interface will have to get people to buy the cars. I think they should just have stopped production of the Si, instead of rushing it to the market. Hopefully the GEN X Si will take a form that is different from the standard coupe & sedan.

Not sure how much I like this front end, although it looks like it is designed for good airflow
