i know the feeling of stupidity. i double and triple checked myself before posting.

i spent two hours with it last night, still no luck. i guess im going to have to pull the dash apart to put something in the AUX channel.
Am i crazy:
im thinking about selling it (when i get it fixed) becasue i have had so many problems. It's not that i dont like it. i just get real upset when it goes on the fritz. and this will be the 3rd time. im at a point where all i do it wait for it to go down again. i would like to think the problem is something i am doing but i know that is not the case. i bring it in every night, dont leave in the car for more than 30 minutes if im not driving, i even hold it with two hands to make sure i dont drop it. i dont know what else to do.
