Personally I think 9.5GB is paltry... I don't see why Infiniti couldn't up the storage more. That's my only real complaint.

They should've made it larger so you could put DVD's on there and watch them.

I suppose... but there are inputs in the arm rest that you could connect media to if it came down to it.

Highest space I have seen flash at is 6gb aand that is from sandisk in their E series of players.

I saw somewhere (FA) that it was a Seagate HD....

Also the HD may only come with the NAV.
NAV uses part of drive, music box uses remaining space.

Guys, were talking about a car here, not an home theatre pc. 9.5 GB is more than big enough to hold music.

Sorry, I gotta disgree here, if they went as far as to put in a high end (yet to be heard) BLOSE system then 9.5gb is not even close to enough. I enjoy high sound and when I rip I do so @ 320kb. That would equate to less than 9 or 10 cd's. I'd rather use my 60gb iPod instead of having to constantly delete and add music in the car, which I'm assuming won't be that quick and easy.

That said, I do give them kudos for breaking ground on something other manufacturers will probably copy later on to compete with.

I would have been much happier with 4gb flash memory--solid state FTW! It's not like I am going to be keeping my mp3 collection in the car--just the stuff I am currently listening to. It would also have been nice to have wireless sync up--I know my wireless router easily reaches the garage.

Thats cool. But, encoding at 320kb is in most cases a waste of space. Improvements over 128kb are usually undetectable by the human ear, especially over 192kb, but I guess if you think you hear a difference, more power to you.

yes, the new ls will have all of that (the same ultra small hd) so techincally its not breaking ground. I am sure there is a good reason for the puny drive.
