For example, can you just hop in your car, turn it on, and start playing some music from your iPhone?
Yes it does. If you power it from the USB port instead of the cigarette lighter, it actually turns on when you unlock the doors. That way the bluetooth pairing is complete before you even start the car.

You can, by controlling the bluetooth volume. I don't see why that's useful when you have a knob AND steering wheel controls that work 10x better. But it is possible. Just be wary when you switch sources, because the aux is already lower than the other ones, and if you're at a comfortable volume level with the iPhone set at half, you'll blow your eardrums out when you switch to radio/cd.
