I have the alpine ipod cable and I was leaving my ipod in the glove box and I happened to notice that it does not turn off the ipod even after you shut off the deck and the car. It still has the Alpine interface screen on the ipod. Is this normal ? I had to disconnect it and manually shut it off from the ipod then I reconnected it and it stayed off. Thanks Bobby.
