    Latest information please?

    Does anyone here have any up to date information in relation to the availability of the following on the 997:

    Bluetooth
    Digital DAB radio
    PDK (The latest I know is that Autocar wrote in Jan 2005 that Porsche are working on PDK and that it would be available on the Boxster Coupe/Cayman - although it is debatable how reliable this information is).

    I've been following the latest news on iPod connectivity and the outlook seems hopeful.

    Also, does Porsche intend to introduce more styles of factory-fitted 19" alloy wheels for the 997?

    Lastly, I recall there was a link somewhere to photos of discontinued paint colours which one can still get as a paint to sample order. Does anybody know the link to that website?

    Thanks

    If they do like with the 996, then a new set of wheels should come out with the 997 mark 2, in about two or three years I should think.
