FEATURE REQUEST!

This may start a firestorm of requests, but maybe that's a GOOD thing

Bluetooth media player track/artist information on the LCD screen next to the speedometer (on my Taurus) in addition to the Touch screen.

I have read that it did indeed work in previous revisions, pre 3.5, but for some reason went away in the 3.5.1 update. As of 3.6, it's still not there.

To explain further, there are two LCD screens, one on each side of my speedometer. The left one is for vehicle-specific info, like fuel economy, tach, fuel guage, etc. The right one is for SYNC specific things, like Entertainment, Phone, Navigation, etc.

The only thing it says when playing Bluetooth Stereo is "Bluetooth Stereo <something" (forget what it says right now). No artist or track info.

Can that be put back into MFT/Sync ???

It's annoying as hell to have the nav screen up for traffic info, and not be able to see the entire artist/track info playing through Bluetooth. Meanwhile, USB, Sirius, AM/FM, all the information is there.

Hopefully Ford's customer rep for IVT sees this here
