So, any idea what else would you need over and above what is provided by
that auction?

I think the guy called Andy Turner in this thread should be able to provide
the answer.

I guess this might depend on what model of Audi you have - I have a
2000 S4.
I bought one imported from the US, to the UK. The only extra thing I
needed to buy was a new transformer for the docking station since the
existing one was 110v only. This version of the Phatbox is wired to
couple directly with the wires to the CD changer in your boot. I took
out the CD changer and put the Phatbox in its place. It's shaped to
fit into exactly the same bracket, with a couple of screws either
side. I believe most modern Audi's are pre-wired for CD changers so
even if you don't already have one, you should have the wires to
connect the Phatbox to.
Presumably you can check the PC requirements yourself, suffice to say
any modern PC will do, and you'd probably want it to have USB2 for the
increase in speed.

This is the voice-controlled model - right?
Did you have to mount a microphone in the cabin somewhere?
