iPhone 5 connectivity

iPhone 5 connectivity
I just preordered iPhone 5, and just realized that now that it has the lightning (8-prong) connector rather than the old 30-pin, it won't plug into my Jag.
I don't know if this works, but I've been wondering if anyone has tried using their USB-to-30-pin cable to plug their iphone in for music purposes only? Does it charge the phone? I ask this because every time I plug it in, my phone's dead by the time I get to my destination and if a change in cord would make it charge along the way, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
If not, does anyone know if Jaguar makes a lightning connector cable, and if so, where can I order it from? If worse comes to worse, I can buy a (bulky) Apple adapter for $29...but I'd rather not.

Yeah, my 4S pairs well with my X250.
I'm just going to wait till my iPhone arrives (preordered last night...Apple is saying October 10-16) and test the USB cable to see if that will work for music. I can't see why bluetooth wouldn't work for calls, if I program my phone with it. If all else fails, I'll buy the lightning to 30 pin connector from apple and plug it in through the Jaguar iPod cord.

iPod out refers to video output but even tech sites question car functionality with the adapter. I'd bet it will depend highly on the car.

My iphone 4s never had a problem docking in my XF until now. Anyone else having this issue? Now my XF doesn't recognize My 4s. But it will ... iphone 5 leaked parts

Even though I just ordered myself the iPhone 5, my solution is simple.
When my wife and son got the iPhone 4s, they gave me their iPods since they no long use them. I took one of the iPods and loaded up my music. Now it never leaves the arm rest in the car.
If you don't have an iPod lying around the house, you can buy a used one off eBay pretty cheaply.

I don't know if it's because it might drain the battery or not. But, what's your experience?

My iphone 5 works Great on my MY10 with the Bluetooth for Phone connectivity, Has anybody tried the apple lightning adapters with the Jaguar Ipod cable. I have tried the cheaper chinese adapters but they don't support Audio, the apple one supports audio but at £25 - £30 I don't want to buy one if its not going to work.

Hi, Just a quick Update. Bought the Apple Lightning adapter cable and it works great with the Jaguar ipod cable.
I tried all of my lightning usb cables with the usb connector but none of them support audio but as the adapter works I don't need them any way.
Still doesn't charge though which is a bit of a pain but never mind can't have it all..

What MY is your Jag? I have a 2010 XF, and it doesn't work for me..
I bought a new Lightening to 30-pin adapter from the Apple store, but not only is my iPhone 5 not picked up as a "docked iPod", it doesn't even charge when connected to the iPod cable. I know there are no issues with the iPod cable as my 160GB iPod Classic works just fine with the cable..
Any ideas on what I need to do??
