You could probably power your iPod with some kind of car power unit, as there's one of those "power ports" right by the AUX input jack in the console box. There might well be aftermarket kits that would allow your iPod to be plugged into the back of your head unit and that would allow it to integrate with your head unit and steering wheel controls, but that info is a bit beyond my knowledge....
Currently there is nothing available. The main problem (at least in my case) is most times the iPod/OEM radio integration is done via an external cd-changer control/plug. My Camry w/NAV has an internal 4CD so I don't think I could 'unplug' the changer and use it's input/control for my iPod.

If we keep bugging the likes of USASpec, maybe they will put something intelligent together.
