I know this might sound stupid but I will ask it anyway.

Does your headunit also have a built-in CD changer or is this used for the navigation part of the headunit? (I don't know if the navigation uses a disc or if it is all on a hard drive)

I have the RCD510 with MDI for my iPod and I can also put 6 CDs into the front of the headunit.

The VW iPod interface is a lot better than anything else I have seen. I used to have an Alpine headunit which was expensive but I had to scroll through each artist to get to the end of the alphabet. (No ZZ Top for a while!) In the VW setup, you can jump straight to any artist in your library.
I love my GTD

The head unit primarily is used for the DVD map, however it can also be used to play a single CD or a DVD which is pretty cool. Was watching Soprano's in the car earlier whilst I was early for a meeting. I love the Soprano's, the best TV drama ever imo. Totally addictive watching.
