Just got a new Alpine head unit for my birthday, it's a 2005 model. It has Ai-NET, that wonderful thing that lets you connect your iPod. But it looks like that is also how the Sirius Satellite Radio also connects. Is it possible to have both the iPod Ai-NET thing installed as well as the Sirius Satellite Radio installed through one head unit?

What forum should this go into? This is about Car Audio? Not about the iPod douche. But thanks for becoming a self-appointed forum police officer. We need more people like you.

That sort of reply doesn't encourage people to help you out, you know

It's my impression that it's both, but I haven't used it.

The whole purpose of Ai-NET was so you can add multiple devices to your head unit; from Alpine or 3rd party. So yes, it will work.
