My little cheap Hypervox intercom has a separate "music input"
jack. My iPod Video plugs in there and works perfectly. The iPod
battery lasts long enough for most any cross country without being
plugged into any power. You only have to worry about the hard drive
if you're flying over 10,000 feet.

The simple solution is to wire an audio jack on the panel and then
just use whatever MP3/iPod player you want.
This was easy enough to do with my stereo intercom.
As for powering the iPod, I put a two port power port (cigerette
lighter jack) from West marine in my panel.
The iPod Nano now goes up to 9 Gb with no hard drive.
As for using the AirGizmo docking station. It is a good idea but I
suspect Apple will change the form factor on the iPods again and
then you are stuck with a docking station that you can't get an iPod for.
