dude, Jensen is like the Acer of headunits, TOTAL CRAP, don't waste your money on that thing. ANY new double din with NAV that costs under about 500 bucks is gonna be garbage save yourself the hassle and do it right the first time.

Bad comparison... I have been buying Acer laptops, desktops and displays for our company for several years now and have had only one failure out over 200 systems (< 0.5%). By comparison, I have a friend whose company buys only Dell laptops and they've had almost 10% dead on arrival.

Guess you've been lucky then, I've seen nothing but problems out of Acer computers going all the way back to the Very first 90 Megahertz CPU desktop that was the first computer our family bought.

Pioneer or Kenwood.

Just picked up a JVC NSX-700 open box for $356. Looks like a really nice unit, visually attractive, and allegedly plays nice though mirrorlink (especially, full "hacked" mirrorlink) for nav and then some.

Check out the NSX 600 (6" screen) and NSX700 (7" screen) and you can use your phone for nav on them, I believe with iPhone or Android.
