I think I read that it's possible on 2012 cars with the iPhone 4 Media cradle...

I'm awaiting delivery of such a car, with the media cradle (apparently there's a non-media iPhone 4 cradle too!); I'll let you know in the next week or so.

You are correct. I was able to watch movies and videos from my iphone using the media cradle for a few minutes and then it would disconnect by itself. Some members have reported intermittent connections with their iphone using the cradle. It happened to me the same week that I got the cradle and I just got tired of trying to make it work. I disconnected the thing and it's been in the glove compartment ever since.

Interesting (and disappointing).

I think the article I saw was specifically about a change in video playback within the MY2012 build, so whether they have addressed the problem, I don't know.

Probably too much to hope for though!
