Interesting. I used to think that I would need that (very expensive) iPhone console cradle.
But since CarPlay works wirelessly, I'll just leave it in my pocket unless I need to charge it.

Just as a side note: AFAIK CarPlay doesn't require much software in the car audio system at all.
It's almost like the Apple Watch with watchOS 1.0: the Watch was basically a remote display.
Most of the processing was done in the iPhone. Similar to using AirPlay with Apple TV.
