Then there is no cable to connect the two. What you're probably thinking of is the MOPAR uConnect mic which you'll need if you want to do hands free. The actual connection between your phone and the MyGIG is done via Bluetooth. It does work with Windows Mobile devices as I've used it with my HTC Hermes for about 5 months and it worked just fine.

If your stereo has the uConnect buttons already on it then you can simply buy the iPod/uConnect module which is $275. You'll need to take it to the dealer and have the radio set up using the StarScan software.
