EAS is great to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Tom@EAS as he helps out if you have any issues or questions. I bought my Ice>Link from EAS.

is it just a matter of ice link is the older product and dice in new and improved??

yes I got mine a month ago and I really love it.

2) How much did the total come out to shipping and unit itself. (im in toronto)
I guess I paid little bit over $200

3) Where did you order it from? EAS or directly from Dice website?
got mine thru tom@ EAS

Dice has recharge func of your ipod and it is really comfortable to use..
can change songs/volume thru your steering wheel. you can't compare dice to
ice-link.

i have the DICE too and i got it from a member at e46fanatics.com. i paid 140 shipped from CA.

it works well with the steering controls but its next to impossible to get to a particular song.

it takes some time getting used to how to switch tracks and albums but i am glad i can still keep my hands on the wheel.

I don't understand the difference. I have the Ice>Link and it:
- charges the iPod
- allows me to control the volume through the steering wheel
- allows me to change the songs through the steering wheel

What makes the DICE better than the Ice>Link?

that is what Tom @ EAS told me. and before I bought my dice I searched

and concluded that DICE is better than ice_link. Otherwise I might just

buy ice_link from the futureshop with cheaper price. (they had a clearance $69 CAD when I was looking for something for my car).

Tom used to sell ice_link before DICE came out and

he doesn't sell ice_link anymore. Maybe they don't produce ice_link anymore?

I searched Google and found out this.

btw he is also selling ICE-link to dice upgrade kit ($99 USD)

DICE must have some advantages over ICE_Link

hmm looking at that chart, the only BIG difference between DICE and Icelink+ is DICE has Aux input. Everything else is pretty much the same. I have my icelink+ and I think it works great!

icelink and dice is pretty much the same ... but they changed it a bit and remarketed icelink as dice because they were having problems with icelink draining the battery on some cars
